LEARNING AT OUR BRITISH PRIMARY SCHOOL IN BUDAPEST

At BIS Budapest, we teach the British National Curriculum for England, which develops the fundamental knowledge and skills every child needs to flourish.

As well as focusing on English, mathematics, and science, your child will grow personally, socially, and emotionally. They’ll learn beyond the classroom, too, through experiential activities that include residential trips, music lessons, and cultural activities. 

KEY STAGE 1 CURRICULUM

At Key Stage 1, our children develop their core English and mathematics skills, as well as following a broad curriculum that includes art, geography, history, science, music, Hungarian culture, and PE.

Our children learn through a variety of British primary school approaches, including projects and themes that span different subjects. Students’ achievements are celebrated in colourful classrooms through displays and samples of work.

Our teachers bring learning to life in practical ways, too. This includes trips to local museums and places of interest. Physical development is also important, and our children take part in a variety of team games, outdoor activities, and sports. In Year 3, your child will also go on their first overnight residential, which is held during the summer term.

KEY STAGE 2 CURRICULUM

The BIS Budapest Key Stage 2 curriculum is full of exciting and stimulating learning experiences – in and beyond the classroom – that encourage our students to collaborate, ask questions, and share their knowledge.

In line with the British National Curriculum for England, our children study English, maths, science, music, geography, history, art, and PE. From Year 3, our students take part in our world languages curriculum, learning either Hungarian (for native speakers), French, or additional English language. We’re proud to be a bilingual primary school, which offers many opportunities to develop language skills.

In our bright and welcoming classrooms, teachers and children take great delight in their work, proudly displaying their learning. The latest interactive education technology is embedded across all subjects and our students also get an early introduction to computer coding. From Year 4, children have access to our Global Campus online platform, enabling them to collaborate and learn alongside thousands of students across the Nord Anglia family.

We also run weekly Hungarian culture sessions that encourage an understanding of the traditions of our host country. Children can also learn a range of musical instruments through our peripatetic programme and join one of our many creative co-curricular activities.

Our children go swimming and enjoy a variety of team games and individual sports, both here at our British primary school in Budapest and at Nord Anglia Education sports tournaments across Europe. All our Key Stage 2 students take part in two or three-night residential camps, too. These are great opportunities to explore different surroundings, grow in independence, learn new skills, and form strong relationships.

Community in the classroom
After a warm welcome, our class teachers will check in on your child’s wellbeing. Group time encourages students to talk, listen, share their hopes for the day, and say how they’re feeling. This builds a spirit of togetherness and develops emotional literacy.

Taking a trip
From Year 3, day and overnight trips teach our students about themselves and others, as well as creating unforgettable memories. On residential camps across Hungary, your child will grow in confidence and independence, make friends, and be supported to take risks.
