Why choose a British International School?
 |
British education, both at the school and university level, has achieved a world-wide reputation for quality.
British education is focused on processes and outcomes – what a child should know and be able to do at any given age – as opposed to emphasising the acquisition of specific knowledge. |
Certain key principles run through the whole of the education system:
- the notion that each child is unique and that this is important
- an emphasis on developing positive relationships (with teachers, parents, peers)
- a focus on enabling environments (learning does not happen exclusively in the classroom)
- learning and development – looking at outcomes and results, but only as one facet of education
| A British education emphasises the development of the whole student. Particularly at the primary level, there is a great deal of scope for creativity and individuality in the classroom. |

Choosing a British international school not only gives students the benefit of a British education, it is eminently transferable. The structure and consistency of the British National Curriculum allows students to easily transfer between British schools in various countries and facilitates an easy progression to university in the UK or elsewhere in the world. |
