THANK YOU for your nice reception and presentation of your wonderful school. It is nice to see how passionate you all are, that there are still good teachers who do not only teach but also give a big piece of themselves into their teaching. All students were impressed to see the positive atmosphere, the equipment, and how creative and communicative the young learners are.

An education at British International School Ljubljana blends consistency and tradition with constant evolution to better meet the needs of our young people from a kaleidoscope of different nationalities and backgrounds, and is supported by an experienced staff who are dedicated to their students and by parents who truly care about the school and are always keen to give help and support. The result a vibrant multi-national community of learners within the wonderful culture and setting that is Slovenia.

Whilst learning is, and always will be, our main focus – our students are prepared for success at IGCSE and A-Levels – our aim is to ensure that each and every student has a happy and fulfilling learning experience throughout their time at the school, whether it is for just one or two years or if it is all the way from 3 to 18. We want them to take every opportunity, accept every challenge, build firm and lasting friendships and to be the creators of many wonderful, unforgettable and positive experiences in their time here. Most of all, we want them to be engaged and inspired to believe in themselves, so that they can achieve to the very best of their abilities, in whatever they do.
