British International School Ho Chi Minh City - Junior Campus

After it’s humble family beginnings in 1997, the British International School Ho Chi Minh City (BIS HCMC) has grown to become the largest international school in Vietnam and one of the leading international schools in South East Asia. BIS HCMC is at the forefront of education, inspiring an international student body of over 50 nationalities to achieve outstanding academic success in an innovative and dynamic environment. In its latest inspection by the British Government, the school was inspected, approved and rated as ‘Outstanding in all categories’, an accolade that very few schools around the world have achieved.

Located in the multicultural Thao Dien area of Ho Chi Minh City, our three modern campuses - Early Years and Infant, Junior, and Secondary - are energising and dynamic places to learn.

Split by age group, each purpose-built campus has first-class facilities that unlock a world of extraordinary opportunities. Combining state-of-the-art sports, science, and artistic spaces with classrooms and labs packed with interactive technology, our facilities will inspire your child to pursue their passions, try new things, and succeed in everything they do.

BIS HCMC operates from three impressive campuses boasting first class facilities in the residential area of District 2. The Junior Campus caters for primary children aged 7 – 11 and is equipped with modern classrooms, a well-stocked library, music and computer suites, STEAM Labs, an indoor 25m swimming pool as well as outdoor sports facilities.

The BIS HCMC primary school provides your child with the academic knowledge and practical skills they need to become successful life-long learners. Their exclusive blend of the English National Curriculum and International Primary Curriculum helps to cultivate your child’s exploration, intellectual curiosity, creativity and strong values whilst delivering excellent academic outcomes in preparation for their Secondary level education. This education is enriched through unique collaborations with world-leading organisations such as MIT, Juilliard and UNICEF to raise your child’s ambitions and ensure future success.

With an adjoining Secondary Campus, BIS HCMC students transfer seamlessly from the Junior Campus and access the secondary curriculum that includes IGCSEs and the IBDP. The academic results in these programmes are significantly higher than any other school in Vietnam and compare favorably to the highest achieving international schools across the world.

The primary curriculum is delivered by a talented team of internationally-qualified teachers who have a highly ambitious approach to all-round excellence and are committed to nurturing and inspiring every child they care for. Learning is a collaborative activity which is complemented by the outstanding care, guidance and support that each child receives at school.
