We offer children an unparalleled opportunity to achieve their true personal potential in a warm, nurturing, and expertly managed learning environment.
British International Preparatory School Admissions
Our school is filled to capacity and we operate with a waiting list. However with such a dynamic and international pupil body, vacancies do arise from time to time throughout the year. Parents are advised to contact us and apply for a place regardless.
British International Preparatory School is not a remedial school, so we do not provide a programme for special needs. Since we are an international school, we do however offer English language assistance to foreign children who are non- English speaking and can arrange for first language tuition in other languages.
British International Preparatory School Application for Registration
A minimum initial payment is to be lodged upon application. If a place is offered and taken up, this is fully deductible from the tuition fees. If however a place is offered but not taken up, then this is not refundable.
