Admissions are now open for 2025/2026
This inspection involved two inspectors visiting the school virtually, meeting with senior leaders and visiting online lessons. They also reviewed the parent questionnaires and I would like to extend my thanks to all parents who contributed to this.
We received the result of the inspection a week ago and I am delighted to inform everyone that BIS Abu Dhabi scored the highest possible grade in every category.
Our community has responded superbly to the closure of the school for these last few months. Teachers have worked incredibly hard to provide the virtual learning and to continually seek to improve it. However, I believe this judgment from ADEK is also due to the parents. You have supported your children at home, worked so closely with the teachers and helped provide suggestions to keep enhancing things further. These full marks from ADEK go to the BISAD parents too!

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.
