Admissions are now open for 2025/2026
Since September, a Maths Challenge Board has been on display for students to take on, which updates fortnightly. All this work towards problem-solving is stretching the boundaries of what is achievable, and our students are rising to the challenge.
At the beginning of November, a group of aspiring top mathematicians at BIS Abu Dhabi, took part in the UK Mathematics Trust Senior Mathematical Challenge. This mathematical competition is aimed at top IB or A level mathematicians, challenging their problem-solving skills.
In Year 13, 8 students achieved an award, with 3 Bronze, 4 Silver and one Gold. Jieun achieved an impressive 95 marks (only 85 marks needed to achieve a Gold award!)
In Year 12, an impressive 10 students achieved an award. With 5 Bronze, 4 Silver and one Gold; Seongwon achieved an incredible 111 marks! Not only was this the best in the year, but the entire school and qualified for the Senior Olympiad, a competition exclusive to the top 1000 students in the world!
A voluntary group of 7 students from Year 11 chose to take on the Senior Challenge, whilst still eligible for the intermediate level. We are incredibly proud of their results, all achieving strong scores with five students achieving a Silver award, and Jeon an incredible Gold award with 96 marks! Such success at a competition targeted at top mathematicians above their age group is a truly remarkably achievement. The Maths department are very proud!
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.
As a proud member of the Nord Anglia family, The British International School (BIS) Abu Dhabi is at the forefront of cutting-edge research. As one of the select pilot schools, we are benefitting from innovative studies like the recent Forbes-featured Metacognition project, which aims to enhance student learning and critical thinking.
