Globeducate British International Schools educational philosophy
Aiming for excellence
We expect a high standard of work while supporting each student’s individual path. Our educational approach nurtures the distinctive abilities and interests of each student, encouraging self-discovery. The qualifications our students gain are aligned with globally-respected standards of excellence. In secondary school, we provide a strong focus on sound preparation and readiness for university or further education as a platform for success.
Our mission is...
to prepare students to shape tomorrow through excellence in British education, with a global perspective.
Our vision is...
to equip students with the tools they need to thrive, overcoming the uncertainty and accelerated changes that the future holds.
Key principles
Our teaching is underpinned by four key principles:
Enrich
Challenge

Achieve
National Curriculum for England, Multilingual Environment
Globeducate International Schools follow the National Curriculum for England, with some schools offering the IBDP at Sixth Form. The National Curriculum for England is focused on English language but this is set in a context of a multilingual or bilingual culture in our GBIS schools, where French, Portuguese or Spanish is also part of the school experience and curriculum. Students are encouraged to adopt a global mindset, developing an awareness, understanding and respect for world culture. Our teachers are drawn from excellent UK or other British international schools.
Respect and Collaboration
Our teachers respect the abilities of each student, while our students respect each other.
A structured, challenging programme of outdoor education fosters independence, resilience and teamwork throughout the student body. There are plenty of opportunities for cooperation and collaboration across the British International Schools family.
