At BISB we believe in building confidence and resilience in our students. Our world class teachers prioritise getting to know our students on a personal level and working with them to build trust. This means our students quickly feel comfortable and confident enough to challenge themselves and take risks, so that they realise what they are truly capable of. We are passionate about giving our students lots of different experiences, both in and out of school, in order to open their eyes to all the opportunities available to them. We believe this will empower them to be ambitious and reach their goals.
It is the time of the year when some programming enthusiasts take part in a 3h long international competition in programming. The Canadian Computing Competition (CCC) is a fun challenge for students with an interest in programming.
Holy Roman Emperor, Charles V is reputed to have said, “I speak in Latin to God, Italian to Women, French to Men, and German to my Horse.“ We can question his attitudes to gender politics and equine husbandry, but there’s no doubt Charles V was a successful language learner, as at home in the salons of Siena as in the stables of Schleswig-Holstein.
