Admissions are now open for 2025/2026
We are delighted to announce that BIS Abu Dhabi students have once again achieved record results in the IB Diploma examinations. The average point score of 33 is significantly ahead of worldwide expectations and has enabled these students to obtain places on highly prestigious University courses.
The school Principal, Patrick Horne, commented, “We are extremely proud of our graduates this year, not just for their exam results, but for what they achieved throughout their time here at BIS Abu Dhabi. Whilst completing the challenging IB Diploma Programme, our students contributed to school life in so many ways and have grown into amazing young adults as a result. These students are now heading off to some of the top universities around the world and towards future careers as doctors, chemical engineers, biochemists and lawyers to name but a few.
These results also showcase the difference that being part of a Nord Anglia Education school can bring to students’ academic results. The opportunities and support provided means that one in three of our students achieve places at the top 100 universities around the world.
It is a testament to our wonderful students, their supportive families and our fantastic team of teachers that results such as these can be achieved. My commendations to everyone involved for providing these students with a truly outstanding education. During the next academic year, we will be marking our 10-year anniversary and this year’s results have certainly given us even more reason to celebrate.”
“Year after year, I am so proud of our Nord Anglia students who, through their dedication, achieve results that exceed global averages for the IB Diploma,” said Andy Puttock, Group Education Director, Nord Anglia Education."
“This year’s results show how our students benefit from world-leading teachers who go beyond traditional education to inspire them toward success,” he said.
The British International School Abu Dhabi (BIS Abu Dhabi) was deeply honoured to welcome Her Highness Sheikha Shamma Bint Sultan Bin Khalifa Al Nahyan to its campus on Thursday, 17 April 2025. Her Highness, President & CEO of the UAE Independent Climate Change Accelerators (UICCA) and The Climate Tribe, is a distinguished entrepreneur, thought leader, and researcher with a deep commitment to sustainability, climate change, and gender equity.
At The British International School Abu Dhabi, we believe that education is not just about academic success—it’s about nurturing compassionate, responsible young people who understand the importance of giving back. This Ramadan, I have been truly moved by the way our students have embraced the spirit of the holy month, demonstrating kindness, generosity, and a genuine commitment to making a difference in the lives of others.
Inspired by the latest Nord Anglia INSIGHTS article exploring why the Early Years are the most important years of a child’s education, we know that a child’s most significant learning happens during this time - in ways that are not always immediately visible.
