Get to Know BIS

The Brazilian International School (BIS) is a bilingual Brazilian school that offers an innovative pedagogical approach, focused on the individualized, global, and collective development of students. The educational work is grounded in ethical, humanistic, and sustainable values. Located in São Paulo, BIS follows the national calendar and covers all stages of Basic Education: Early Childhood Education, Elementary I, Elementary II, and High School.
The institution emphasizes cultural appreciation, encourages critical thinking, and strengthens self-esteem and emotional intelligence as important factors in developing citizens who are aware of the role and impact they have on the world they live in.

Why Study at BIS

More than just a school that invests in teaching a foreign language, the Brazilian International School directs its educational philosophy toward a complete formation. Our students are prepared to be part of a globalized society, equipped with knowledge, values, and transformative power. Each educational stage is designed to provide growth in line with the guidelines of the Ministry of Education, but also to go beyond. Through the socio-interactionist approach, the primary objective of the lessons is to broaden the students’ understanding of the world, promoting sustainability, human development, appreciation of artistic expression, and the development of competencies and skills that prepare students for a global and meaningful education.

3 Reasons to Enroll Your Child

Education is an extremely valuable asset with great transformative potential. In childhood and adolescence, a time of identity discovery and self-affirmation, it is essential to choose an institution that opens up possibilities, expands horizons, and supports this growth process.

The Brazilian International School offers a contemporary infrastructure that fosters the natural development of its students’ emotional and cognitive capacities. Here’s why:

Bilingual Education from Early Childhood

Our teaching approach is truly bilingual. The English language is a tool for building learning. The Brazilian and International curricula complement each other, providing students with a complete and differentiated education. From Early Childhood, students incorporate the English language into their daily lives and acquire fluency, becoming natural bilinguals.

Socio-interactionist and Humanistic Approach

We believe that learning happens through students’ interaction with their environment and peers. Based on this, we provide a rich and stimulating environment, enabling students to maximize their potential.

Preparation for Universities in Brazil and Abroad

At the end of High School, students receive a “dual diploma” – Brazilian and International. With the fluency acquired and the necessary documentation in hand, students can apply for universities in Brazil or opt to continue their education abroad.

Simone Biase

“My brother was part of BIS’s first class, and later my daughters studied there from 2007 to 2013. We loved the school and only left because of a change in location. I can’t imagine a better place for their Early Childhood Education. Their development was incredible, always done in a playful way, fostering motivation and cooperation. I am very grateful to BIS for being present at the most important time of their education – the foundation.”
