General Entry Requirements
Prospective students undergo assessments to gauge their readiness for the curriculum, including evaluations of their English proficiency and overall academic preparedness. While the school may accept children with limited English skills in Lower School, Middle and High School admissions have stricter language proficiency criteria, assessed on an individual basis.
Academic Preparation
BISB evaluates whether students can effectively engage with its curriculum, encompassing the National Curriculum of England, the International Primary Curriculum, the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE), and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP). Previous academic records likely play a role in this assessment, though specific requirements are not outlined.
Additional Support
Recognizing learning gaps, BISB offers additional support to ensure student success. The school’s Global Campus initiative, which integrates with the curriculum, may also influence admissions decisions, particularly for students from diverse international backgrounds.
Application Process
Applicants must submit required documentation and pay associated fees as part of the application process. While the specifics of the documents and fees are not detailed, they are typically included in the admissions package.
Special Considerations
BISB values diversity and welcomes students from various international backgrounds, as evidenced by its student community representing over 80 heritages and more than 20 languages spoken. These entry requirements aim to ensure that all students are adequately prepared to excel in BISB’s academically rigorous and globally-minded educational environment.
