Parent Experience

Community, involvement and what it's like to be a parent at this school

History

The British School in Baku (BSB) offers a full schooling program for 4 to 18-year-olds with the Cambridge Advanced Level as part of the senior curriculum. BSB provides a Cambridge International Curriculum adapted from the English National Curriculum in Baku. It is the first school in Azerbaijan to be accredited by COBIS and CIS. Cambridge and Edexcel accredit BSB to offer international programs from Primary through IGCSE, AS, and A-Level courses in the Secondary. The Primary School serves ages 4 to 11 and the Secondary School serves ages 11 to 18, with Foundation Stage, Key Stages 1–2 in Primary and Key Stages 3–5 in Secondary, including Cambridge checkpoints and IGCSE/AS/A-Level pathways.

Community

The Mission emphasizes a stimulating and caring environment that enables students to realize their potential and develop the skills for lifelong learning. It also promotes a social climate that models international understanding and the enjoyment of the diverse cultures represented by the school community. Collaboration between parents and the school is encouraged so that parents are actively involved in their children's education. Students have opportunities to participate in international Olympiads and competitions, and additional foreign language options include English, French, Russian, and German.

Parent-Teacher Association

PTAs are formal bodies composed of parents, teachers, and staff intended to facilitate parental participation in a school and to encourage closer links between home and school. They are best known for fundraising work, but they also serve a social function by bringing together parents, staff, and pupils at fundraising events. Parents can contribute their ideas and efforts within PTA guidelines to assist with school functions. There are PTA pages for both Primary and Secondary to support involvement and ongoing parent engagement across the school.
