PRINCIPAL'S WELCOME

Welcome to The British International School Budapest. We are a vibrant, warm community with a strong and well deserved reputation delivering the best of British and International education programmes.

At BISB, we are proud of our excellent academic standards and the outstanding university destinations achieved by our alumni. Equally, we take pride in achieving these results alongside developing the skills and dispositions needed to thrive in today’s exciting, complex, and rapidly changing world.

Learning at BISB values both the acquisition of knowledge and the development of essential life skills. These include building and sustaining positive relationships, working collaboratively, communicating effectively, showing care and kindness, maintaining personal wellbeing, and taking responsibility. Through these principles, we ensure our students are prepared to make a meaningful impact on the world, now and in the future.

As you explore our website and social media, you will see this rich student experience in action. You’ll see how our students are empowered by their learning, inspired by our shared community values, and driven to translate both into tangible, impactful contributions. Along side this you will see the enjoyment and engagement our students have in their learning.

Our support for students on this journey is built on a strong foundation of care and guidance. Parents, students, and teachers work together to create conditions for positive healthy relationships, enabling students to take risks with confidence, knowing they are in a safe and secure learning environment.

Our campus offers first class facilities in a central location, supported by dedicated, skilled, and committed teachers. Our ongoing professional development ensures our staff remain at the forefront of educational practice, delivering a truly world class experience.

We are the only school in Hungary to be accredited by the UK Department of Education as a British School Overseas. Our BSO accreditation assures our community that our school meets the rigorous standards of leading UK independent schools, providing confidence in the quality, care, and outcomes we deliver.

Furthermore, as part of the Nord Anglia family, our students benefit from the Global Campus platform, connecting them with over 80,000 peers worldwide. Global collaborations with The Juilliard School for Performing Arts in New York, MIT, UNICEF, and IMG Academy for sporting excellence, further enrich their opportunities—showcasing the advantages of belonging to a community that extends far beyond one school.

While our website and social media offer a glimpse into life at BISB, I warmly encourage you to arrange a visit and experience our school first-hand.

Welcome to the British International School Budapest (BISB), a vibrant, warm community with a strong and well-deserved reputation.
