Berlin Brandenburg International School (BBIS) is a private, state-approved, inclusive, English language day and boarding school serving the internationally-minded community of Germany’s capital region and beyond. The BBIS campus is located in the village of Kleinmachnow, bordering the southwest of Berlin, on a large, quiet, wooded hill known as the Seeberg.
BBIS offers an international education programme. An
International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, BBIS is fully authorized by the International Baccalaureate organization in Geneva, Switzerland to teach all four IB programmes covering the 3 to 19 age range. The school is also fully accredited by the Council of International Schools (CIS) and the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSA).
From Early Childhood to grade 12, BBIS is truly an international school, with 680 students representing 55 different nationalities. In grade 12, students have the opportunity to earn the IB Diploma, a qualification recognized by universities and colleges throughout the world, or the IB Career-related Certificate preparing them for studies in business or professional training after leaving school.
The school’s commitment to academic excellence is matched by a belief in educating the whole person. BBIS offers excellent facilities and an extensive extracurricular programme for students of all ages. Classes are small, usually with fewer than 18 students, thus enabling the teachers to know each student well and address his or her individual needs. In addition, specific support is provided for
students with special needs and those for whom English is not a first language.
