Following the English National Curriculum, our school currently welcomes students from over 40 different countries. As such, our school has one of the most varied international student bodies in Slovenia, which, as well as providing a stimulating and cosmopolitan environment, also means that English is truly the common language, spoken throughout the school by all students and staff alike.
At the British International School of Ljubljana, we believe that a child can only reach his or her full potential in an environment which identifies and develops his or her individual learning needs. Our curriculum creates practical, creative problem-solvers, who are aware of differing points of view and the benefits these differences offer.
BISL students enjoy learning, inquiring and caring for others around them. Students are immersed in a multicultural environment that focuses on international and local learning needs, views and opinions.
We promote intercultural understanding and respect, not as an alternative to a sense of national identity, but as an essential part of life in the 21st century.
As part of our comprehensive, students are afforded exclusive opportunities to engage in international events, collaborate with professional performers, contribute to philanthropic endeavors, and partake in many additional enriching activities. Through these diverse experiences, BISL students not only broaden their perspectives but also cultivate invaluable skills, fostering personal and professional growth that transcends geographical boundaries.
