Bavarian International School
Changemakers for a new tomorrow
The Bavarian International School (BIS) is more than just a school. It is the place where students from three to 19 years of age are prepared for the new world of tomorrow. This is where young personalities, global citizens and changemakers develop.
For many students, BIS is a home away from home and a family network for life. BIS places individual child development at the heart of its educational philosophy, encouraging active and engaged participation. Its facilities provide a safe environment where students can focus on all aspects of student development: academic, intellectual, creative, social, physical, ethical, and emotional.
International community
Across both BIS campuses, in Munich-Schwabing and Haimhausen, education for around 1,200 students from more than 60 nations takes place under the philosophy "Believe. Inspire. Succeed." Approximately 180 teachers from all over the world act as mentors, inspiring students and imparting values and future skills along with academic knowledge.
Unique learning conditions
BIS offers unique learning conditions with state-of-the-art technological equipment and holistic education far beyond the curriculum. Around 80 "After School Activities" per week are complemented by special programmes such as European Environmental School, Model United Nations or The Duke of Edinburgh's International Award. At the BIS City Campus on Leopoldstrasse, after-school care is available until 6 p.m..
Academic excellence
BIS is a private, non-profit, all-day school (kindergarten, preschool, primary school, and secondary school) and is one of the best international schools in Germany and Europe. BIS is the only International Baccalaureate (IB) World School in Germany to offer all four IB programmes (PYP, MYP, DP, CP). An IB degree opens doors to the best universities in the world - from Oxford to Harvard to the TUM or LMU in Germany.
