How would you rate Bilingual International School of Paris (BISP)?
Our child is in her second year at BISP (1st grade). The work is amazing, friendly staff, we love this school and recommend it to everyone
Our family came from the USA, with our kids not speaking French. We were very happy with the progress they made in both language. The curriculum is balanced, varied and challenging. My son and my daughter always looked forward to going to BISP. We appreciated the small class sizes, the support from the team in general and the frequent updates from the teachers.
As a parent, I regret sending my child here. She learned absolutely nothing. From the promises made, I fully expected my child to learn some English. But she learned nothing. Her reading and writing skills are worse than when she first started this school. In addition to this, when she struggled she was not offered any support. I paid a premium price for my child's education and I was not given what I paid for. My student only worked on projects, that had no educational value.
Becareful parents!! It's a non-refundable school. No matter what happens. I registered my girl in May 2019 and paid full tuition, and notified them not able to attend the school due to the visa problem in July 2019, and they refused to refund any. They took the whole tuition for nothing. They didn't even reply back to our lawyer. Horrible horrible experience.

My daughter spent 2 wonderful years at BISP. It’s a completely bilingual school with half days in English and half days in French. The classes are small:12 to 15 students. The teachers are amazing. Learning is fun. The principal is very approachable and communication flows very smoothly between parents and the school (e.g. weekly newsletters, daily touch points with staff, frequent events and parents/ teachers meetings).

We moved to Paris from USA three months ago and this school has truly made the transition for my 7year old son a wonderful experience. He is learning French very well and continues to grow his English skills. The teachers have spent the extra time he needed to catch up to the other kids in his class as we came into the school few months into the year. Boris, the head of the school has done a wonderful job with this school. The school projects and field trips have all been added education for my son. I would recommend this school.

My daughter goes to the nursery class. Teachers are passionate and professional. They love kids a lot. My daughter enjoys the school very much and she wants to go to school always. She gets accustomed very soon to school even though she is small. I appreciate the teachers and the staffs for their effort.

Our son attended the primary school for the 2016-17 school year (we have since moved away from Paris). We were very happy with the progress he made in English as well as in French. The curriculum was balanced and varied and he always looked forward to going to school. We appreciated the small class sizes, good learning support and frequent updates from the teachers.

BISP is a one of a kind school in Paris! I am so happy to have found this school for my son. It is his fifth year at BISP and he absolutely loves coming to school and adores his two third grade teachers. My son is completely bilingual and is being challenged by the rigorous Cambridge program. He is truly a global child, having been exposed to a rich social studies curriculum where he "traveled" the globe whilst learning side by side from children from around the world. The small class size has enabled him to get the special attention and support that he needs. The team is great, you can tell that they love their profession and work together well. I wholeheartedly recommend this school!
