The British International School of Washington

The British International School of Washington is an exceptional school for children aged 2-18 years old. We teach the international primary curriculum, international middle years curriculum, Cambridge IGCSE curriculum and International Baccalaureate diploma programme (IBDP) – internationally respected qualifications that prepare your child for higher education and exciting careers anywhere they choose.

Our passionate and talented teachers guide our students to achieve outstanding results, opening doors to the world’s leading universities. We’re proud that our IBDP class of 2021 achieved an impressive average score of 34.9, 1.88 points higher than the global average.

Our exclusive collaborations with prestigious institutions such as Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Juilliard and UNICEF mean we’re at the forefront of educational thinking, creating life-changing experiences for your child, while our location close to the centre of Washington means your child’s learning stretches far beyond the classroom – from the Smithsonian museum to the local Georgetown library, trips out to the local area give our students the chance to explore the US capital.

We’re a vibrant and friendly community of more than 60 nationalities, helping our students understand how people see the world and develop a global mindset. We teach English, Spanish and French, languages that open up a world of opportunity. Your child becomes part of our global family of Nord Anglia international schools around the world, and will interact with their classmates through Global Campus, our online learning platform.

With an international mindset at the heart of all we do, the British International School of Washington provides your child with the very best foundation for a bright and exciting future as a global citizen.
