At the British International School of Ljubljana, we pride ourselves on helping students unlock their full potential.
As they move on from BISL, our graduates carry with them more than just exam results; they take with them curiosity, resilience, and a passion for learning.
Each year, our Year 13 students apply to top universities across Europe and beyond. With a strong support system of teachers and mentors, they’re guided every step of the way — from choosing courses to writing personal statements and preparing for interviews.
