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.

Students Reflect on Their Journey

My academic experience at BISL has made me appreciate the importance of trial and error through the course of my studies. A strong work ethic and the constant pursuit of self-improvement goes hand in hand with success.

Nika, now at the University of Aberdeen

BISL has provided me with knowledge where it was lacking, a push when it was needed and, most importantly, the opportunity to find and chase my goals in my university of choice in the UK.

I left BISL with so many beautiful memories. The people I met and the skills it taught me will accompany me forever.
