International Education & Philosophy

BISS is a truly international school.

Our children represent many cultures, traditions and beliefs. All are welcome to join our community, for any length of time, during any period of transition. All are welcome to share in our optimism and faith in a global society. They model and learn from each other as young global citizens with common purpose and direction. Norwegian children also have an important place in our school  

The International Baccalaureate (IB) and International Primary Curriculum (IPC) programmes are the foundation of our academic success. IB qualifications are significant and far-reaching. They are recognised across the world as the leading standard for international education. We are proud and honoured to offer this philosophy of intelligent and structured teaching. Our children have full access to these sophisticated and innovative systems for learning. Schools and universities throughout the world consider the IB and IPC to have no parallel in quality and depth. As competition increases for the best places in secondary, further and higher education, the IB and IPC philosophy is rapidly growing in strength and application.
