Bordeaux International School
Bordeaux International School, or BIS, is a private international school in Bordeaux, France, established in 1988 for students aged 3–18. The student body consists of individuals from France and various other countries. We use English and French as the primary languages of instruction in the direct streams and mostly English in secondary school. In August 2005, the school relocated to new premises on rue Judaïque.
Bordeaux International School stands out as the sole school in the region accredited by the CIS (Council of International Schools), offering bilingual teaching from Early Learning through Secondary levels. They prioritize curriculum continuity and language skill development through their immersive bilingual program. The goal is to nurture students who think creatively, express themselves confidently, and become independent, lifelong learners capable of positively impacting the world.
The school encourages students to be proactive and responsible global citizens, providing dedicated support for academic studies. Their dynamic and experienced teaching team, comprised of individuals from various nationalities, fosters active and personalized learning. Students engage in a stimulating environment, challenging themselves to reach their full potential.
For those interested in an even more profound cultural experience, BIS offers boarding with French host families. This extends cultural immersion and allows students to appreciate French culture and lifestyle through involvement with the local community. The school encourages a sustainable lifestyle, aims to foster an understanding of global issues, and inspires students to become thoughtful global citizens. Prospective visitors are welcome to explore the school, where they can be introduced to the relevant head of the section, be shown around, and have any questions addressed.
