How would you rate British International School of Ljubljana (BISL)?
The British International School of Ljubljana is an excellent school to work at. The environment is caring and student-centered, the lessons are well prepared and it is wonderful to see the students smiling and enjoying their school days.
My child has been attending BISL for years. The teachers are professional and caring. They are committed to their students being successful learners and go over and beyond to support them. It is very clear why BISL is an outstanding school and the best there is for international education and qualifications in Slovenija. I would highly recommend it to any families that are looking for high-quality education in an international setting, with an up-to-date approach to teaching and learning.
This is a school where a top education is available to your child. Both the school plan and other activities are very well prepared. Given the values and high level of professionalism, the school has earned the title of outstanding. I highly recommend it.
The school is very strong academically in the Secondary department. The classes in the secondary department are small, so my children got a lot of 1 on 1 personal approach. The teachers are approachable and professional and the children are thriving.
Great international school in Ljubljana
We are very satisfied with the British School. Our daughter is happy, she has lots of friends and the teachers are fantastic. Our daughter's English has improved so well now, she is very well settled. I can't fault the school for anything - the communication is frequent and if we have any questions, the teachers are always open to discussion. I can only recommend this school.
Great school, I love working here. Brilliant teachers and outstanding students.
BISL is a lovely place to work at. The teachers are highly committed to their students and helping them get the most from their learning. Small classes enable a more personalised approach, thus giving the students the opportunity to learn in different ways. I highly recommend the British International School of Ljubljana to all families who want an outstanding education for their children.
This school is by far the worst that my child has gone to. We have been to many different schools and the only word to describe this one is just a scam. This school spends more money on marketing than on their students. To make things worse, they suck up even more for personal gain as a corrupt for profit school. They are definitely not worth 15,000 euros per year. There is a huge bullying problem, the facilities are a complete mess, and the teachers visibly tremble at the sight of the headmasters. Almost all the secondary teachers from last year left, and the ones that are staying are just after the IGCSE certificate that they get at the second year of teaching. There are some teachers who barely know English, have a low degree, and teach the extremely important IGCSE exams, because all the good teachers left. Public schools in slovenia are much better than this, so please don't expose your child to this scam of a school.
BISL provides an international education for students aged 5 to 19 and equips them with academic skills as well as 'soft skills' leading to a deeper understanding of the syllabus, wider knowledge, stronger rhetorical skills, and abilities to synthesize and elaborate. I have seen students learn in a caring environment encouraged by teachers that provide support and challenge, as well as high expectations for them. These factors have great effects on the learning process, students' progress, and outcomes. Students have time to recharge their batteries during the two breaks outside on the playground and experience different a range of after-school activities in the afternoon. There is plenty of opportunities to build on collaboration, flexibility, and imagination, as the school has in the past even organized Enrichment days on Saturdays coming back from online learning, providing group activities and socially rich content as students have been missing these whilst learning at home.
