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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I have had the privilege of working at BISL for a long time and the school has been going from strength to strength every year. It is still a relatively young International school however it has established itself well in Slovenia. It is situated in a good area near the city center, it has a great outdoor area with more room to extend to in the future. Recently the school expanded. We now have a new modern building to accommodate students and their teachers. The students are very kind and respectful to teachers and each other which makes the school a wonderful place to be. BISL is a great school and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a school where students thrive academically and socially.
