BIS Hanoi recognised as one of the Most Popular International Schools of 2025

Why families choose the British International School Hanoi since 2012

Established in 2012, BIS Hanoi has been recognised based on several key strengths, including academic excellence, high‑quality teaching, successful university pathways, and strong community relationships, that consistently attract families seeking an outstanding international education in Hanoi.

The school is widely recognised as the leading IB school in Hanoi, consistently achieving the highest IB Diploma Programme results in the city. In 2025, BIS Hanoi students achieved an impressive average point score of 33.24, significantly above the global average of 30.58. This marks the eighth consecutive year our students have outperformed global averages. 

Many students achieved results of 40 points or above, reflecting both academic rigour and strong personalised support. Over the past five years, four BIS Hanoi students have achieved the maximum score of 45 points, an exceptional accomplishment reached by only a small percentage of IB students worldwide.

These results are underpinned by a team of experienced, world‑class teachers who create a learning environment that is both challenging and nurturing. Through high‑quality teaching and a strong emphasis on student wellbeing, teachers empower learners to achieve their potential while developing confidence, independence, and a lifelong love of learning.

 

Strong global university pathways

Graduates of BIS Hanoi continue to receive offers from prestigious universities ranked in the world’s top 100, including Stanford University, the University of Cambridge, University College London (UCL), KAIST, and Yale University. These outcomes reflect the school’s strong academic preparation and its personalised university guidance, which helps students identify pathways that align with their strengths and aspirations. 

A connected and caring community 

Beyond academic success, BIS Hanoi is known for its warm, inclusive, and supportive community. Strong partnerships between students, staff, and families foster an environment in which children feel valued, safe, and empowered to thrive. This sense of connection plays a vital role in student wellbeing and is a key reason families continue to choose BIS Hanoi as their preferred international school in Hanoi.

Globally accredited quality 

The school’s quality and standards are further validated through international accreditation by the Council of International Schools (CIS) and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) since 2017. These respected accrediting bodies certify that BIS Hanoi meets rigorous global benchmarks for educational quality, leadership, and student support. 

This recognition by the International Schools Database is a proud moment for the BIS Hanoi community. We would like to thank our students, staff, and families for their continued trust and partnership in making BIS Hanoi a thriving, high‑performing international school.
