Overall

The school management is very good at giving a good image of the school, but unfortunately, this does not often reflect reality. From our experience, this is a school where it is worth going if you do not speak German and you stay in Berlin for just a couple of years. Or if you want your child to have grades that they will not get in other schools. It was a good school in the past but it is gradually deteriorating. The good teachers and highly capable students are gradually all leaving. The teachers have no preparation to deal with students who are highly capable. The focus is mainly on money, but if you are thinking of getting into a school for wealthy people this is not the case, since the fees depend on income and it can be very low and in some cases also free. Some parents do donations to the PTA which is the not-for-profit association that receives the money which is then given to the school.

When I started off here, I couldn't even speak a word of English – now, I'm preparing for a future in the UK! Amazing school, top-notch staff, exceptional community. THANK YOU BBS!

This school is very important to me, I learned my English here. It's amazing how good this school is at teaching languages, I was here for 3 years and learnt to speak perfect English and quite fluent German. I miss you, Berlin British School.

I went to this school between 1980 and 82. My dad was stationed here and we lived on swiftweg

While in Germany, I spent six to eight years in bbs. I remember that the teachers were all good. They were kind and well cared for. I had a lot of activities and had a lot more fun than my Korean school life. It would have been nice if I could have been there longer, but I'm sorry that it's been less than a few years.
