Located in the heart of the city of Puxi, Shanghai, we are a British International School that offers a full British curriculum, enhanced to meet the needs of our international students. We are British-owned, and have British trained teachers delivering the English National Curriculum, culminating in IGCSE and A Level qualifications, to students aged 2 to 18.
As a fully accredited school by both COBIS and CIS, we respect and invest time developing an understanding among our students of the cultures and languages of the 40 different nationalities in our school, but spanning this international diversity, our foundations are set in a strong British ethos. We attract the most acclaimed, fully trained teachers and assistants to deliver the very best of British education for our students.
We want students in our schools to be happy, safe, and challenged in their learning. Our schools are non-selective, and our UK-qualified teachers are dedicated to working with families to support and nurture each student to achieve their potential. This may be through outstanding academic success, or by development of a student’s unique talents through a range of co-curricular activities.
We know you want the best education for your child, which is why we offer a British education from the very start of your child’s academic journey and nurture them through to achieving the most prestigious IGCSE and A Level qualifications as part of the English National Curriculum; setting them on a pathway to the most sought-after universities and career paths. Why do we teach A Levels? Because today, they are recognised as gold standard qualifications, highly respected by universities and employers across the world.
We offer a fully-immersive British learning experience for students that will help them to become responsible global citizens, who can work together as team players with the skills to excel in an ever-evolving modern marketplace.

Thank you once again for doing your part to keep Edarabia the most trusted education source.
British International School Shanghai (NAE) is by far one of the best schools in this part of the world. My children are currently attending this school. A comfortable campus, great leadership team, dedicated teachers and a never ending list of ECA's makes it ideal for the overall development of a child. Global Campus launched by NAE has brought the world to the kids in an amazing way. From being able to discuss Mars Exploration with Astronaut Jeff Hoffman, to listening and asking questions to Julliard Alumni's like Anthony McGill or Richard Dent, to be inspired from legends like Yo-Yo Ma, to having your very own MIT correspondents while being made aware of current affairs and global issues is like giving your child a huge head start in their life. I definitely recommend this school for all those seeking the best for their children.

We have had our teenagers for 4 years at BISS and they have loved this school. Our eldest one just graduated and has had amazing university offers . The academic program is very strong and both of my children have had amazing support if they asked for it or if it was needed.
BISS has a great Sports, Music &Dance and STEAM program and stimulates every child to do some other activities beside the academic program: Be Ambitious! The BISS parents community is very welcoming and if you arrive new at the school, the BISS New Parents Team will be there to help you settling in. Look at their website or Facebook page, but even better talk to the BISS New Parents Team, they can connect you the BISS families who have children in the same age or BISS families from the same country. I also highly recommend to book a school tour to get an impression of BISS. We have enjoyed being part of the BISS Puxi community!!!

After transferring my boy from local school to BISS PUXI for a year, i must say its the best decision we ever made. He is much happier and always enjoys sharing his daily activities with us. Also, I would highly recommend the after school activities the school have to offer.

My daughter has joined BISS for almost a year. I liked BISS very much. The new parent team (NPT) was very kind and helpful. It helped me to know this community quickly. The parent workshops offer me with many useful information about children's education. My daughter likes BISS very much for the way of teaching in BISS. She feels teachers and classmates are kind and friendly.
