The British School In Colombo

BSC is one of the leading international schools in the sub-continent, with an excellent reputation for providing an outstanding and thriving all-round education based on the English National Curriculum for 2 to 18-year-olds.

We are proud of our academic results and our success at placing students in top universities around the world. Of course, a good school is far more than simply academic results. We believe BSC provides an outstanding all-round education so that all our students thrive and blossom, enabled to be the best that they can be.

A child’s education is not a dress rehearsal; they only get one chance. That is why a good education is crucial for the well-being and fulfilment of our children. As society continues to change, it is important that schools provide a safe and stable environment where all young people feel valued and where they can learn and achieve. We believe the high-quality teaching and learning which is at the heart of BSC ensures that every child fulfils or exceeds their potential.

The British School in Colombo provides a very stimulating learning environment that develops outstanding young people who are moral, respectful and have a strong sense of identity. The school is a busy place, where students engage in a wide range of activities before and after school. Our aim is to ensure that all students find their hidden talents.

The vision of the British School in Colombo is to be a world class school. To fulfill this ambitious vision, we believe:

• Everyone should achieve the highest academic standards
