I am very grateful to the entire BISB team for their professionalism and for creating the best conditions for children's development and an incredible atmosphere. The teachers do their job very well and treat each child with love and attention. They create a safe and cosy environment for every child. The pupils are provided with everything they need to learn. They are delighted to go to school, which is a great indicator for parents.
My daughter quickly adapted and socialised with the new team. During the study period, we noticed many positive changes in the child's behaviour and development. BISB is a school that will help your child unlock his/her potential.
I would also like to mention the director, Dr. Doyle, who is incredibly attentive to all the requests and always quick to help and answer your questions. She is always among the students and teachers. Thank you very much for the happy childhood of our children!

When choosing a school for my child, I heard reviews about BISB stating that you won't find such activities in any other school in Brussels. Now, from my own experience, I can confirm this. Various guided tours and animations are constantly organized for children.
Every Friday, children are taken out to nature, where interesting games, quests and competitions are organized during the day.
The learning process is created through interesting games, group work, and lots of experiments.
Sports are given great attention at school; thanks to this, students grow up healthy and strong. A great pleasure for students is visiting the swimming pool to which children are taken by private bus.
Twice a year, through the efforts of teachers and students, students stage incredible theatrical performances. It's always a holiday for everyone! Rehearsals continue throughout the semester. These ar... read full review

BISB is the school I've always dreamed of as a parent. This small school, located in the heart of Brussels, has a warm, family-like atmosphere and offers a tailored curriculum for the children. The teachers are exceptional, striking the perfect balance between discipline and nurturing. When our son started at BISB, he didn't speak a word of English, having just moved to Brussels from our home country right after kindergarten. It was a major transition, both emotionally and physically. Thanks to the dedicated lessons and support, within a few months, he was speaking, reading, and writing fluently in English, and he now thoroughly enjoys the school. BISB also offers a range of after-school activities like LEGO coding and robotics, football, drama, and more, making it even more appealing for both children and parents.
