The British International School of Houston cherishes every student's unique route – because there's no one way for your child to make progress and achieve success in their journey. We take a highly personalised approach to teaching and learning, and our talented teachers use their in-depth knowledge of every student to structure the ideal balance between supporting and challenging, step by step – for every goal, subject, or project.
Teachers work closely with students and parents to understand the child's ambitions and offer customised university preparation and strategic coursework from our impressive International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) to the distinct college-credit offerings of our International Baccalaureate Career-related Programme (IBCP).
We bring well-established, globally mindful curricula to life every day at the British International School of Houston – from the International Primary Curriculum (IPC) to the International Baccalaureate (IB) – as we nourish our students’ growth as global citizens. Every age group’s carefully constructed curriculum encourages great variety and depth in their learning, while stimulating connections with the world. As a result, BIS Houston’s students are empowered to take the lead in their learning journey.
We complement academic subjects with real-world opportunities to strengthen students’ well-being and personal enrichment, too. From our co-curricular activities (CCAs) to our global partnerships, students choose from and access the best resources for their future – earning remarkable results along the way.
From Years 7 to 9 (equivalent to 6th and 8th grades in the US school system), our Middle School students discover what they like and who they are. They embrace inspiration, passion, curiosity, trial and error, personal discovery, and exploration opportunities. Across our varied, rigorous academic programme, students take responsibility for their own learning and collaborate with peers and faculty through real-world experiences that prepare them for High School.
BIS Houston students may expand their knowledge of world languages and cultures by studying Spanish and French.
In Primary and Middle School, students who are literate in a language native to their home country or heritage may also choose to advance their study of this language. We currently offer Dutch and German heritage programmes for students whose first language is Dutch or German, for example.
By High School, students may choose to advance their languages through the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP), where they may even qualify for a ‘Dual Language Diploma’ to showcase their achievement in two languages.
British International School Houston has a rich network of alumni who are making our world a better place. We celebrate their experiences and achievements, as they’ll always be part of our community and inspire us.
At the British International School of Houston, we have many opportunities for your child to pursue everything that interests them. No matter what their aspirations may be, we’ll nourish their growth through inspiring activities that connect them to the world.
