Introduction

Brighton International School (BIS) opened in 2015 and is based in the Boeung Tumpun area of Phnom Penh. The school teaches the UK (British) curriculum alongside the Cambodian (MoEYS) national curriculum for Khmer classes; BIS runs an Early Years programme (noting Khmer Language classes for ages 2–5) and a Khmer curriculum for grades 1–6 (pupils aged about 6–12). The website highlights a sustained focus on English language and literacy (including an intensive phonics programme) and a developed mathematics programme. BIS moved to its Boeung Tumpun location in June 2020 and notes it is about 15 minutes south of the Russian Market. The site invites prospective families to book a tour or contact admissions for more detail on fees, class sizes, transport, and extracurricular activities.

The Essentials

Brighton International School has instruction in English.

Location
Brighton International School is located at

33, Street 26BT, Boeung Tumpun 2, in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The school site gives this street address and contact phone numbers; Boeung Tumpun is in the Meanchey/Chroy Changvar area of the city and is accessible by local roads and taxis — you should check local maps for exact transit options.

Stages
The school says it follows the UK curriculum arranged in key stages (early years through secondary) and runs an Early Years programme for children aged about 2–5. The site also notes a Khmer curriculum that spans grades 1–6 (pupils aged about 6–12). For exact grade names and upper-secondary provision, contact the school.

Type
Brighton International School is presented on its website as an independent, not-for-profit international school registered in Cambodia (founded 2015). The website does not explicitly state a single-gender or boarding status; there is no mention of boarding facilities.

Additional learning support
The school's website describes individualised learning and support within its curriculum (for example tailored teaching and phonics support), but it does not publish a detailed Special Educational Needs (SEN)/Additional Learning Needs policy or specific facilities on the public site. If your child has identified SEN, contact the school to ask for their current SEN provision, assessment processes and any available resources.

Country affiliation
The school is located and registered in Cambodia; it uses the UK curriculum alongside the Cambodian (Khmer) curriculum for some year groups but the school itself is not presented as formally affiliated to another country's government.

Religious affiliation
The school website does not state any religious affiliation. It presents itself as a secular international school.

School day structure
The school website does not publish a regular daily start/end time for the standard term. The principal's page gives office hours (Monday–Friday, 9:00 am–3:00 pm), and a school-run summer programme listing shows days running roughly 8:30 am–3:00 pm; third-party school listings give a common reported schedule of about 7:30–15:30. For the exact term-time day structure (start, finish, breaks and supervised care), ask the school directly.

Bus service
The school's official website does not describe a regular school bus service or transport routes. Because third-party listings offer mixed information, the most reliable next step is to contact the school's admissions or reception (the site lists email info@brightoninternationalschool.org and phone numbers) to confirm whether they operate a bus service, routes, costs and registration procedures.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- The publicly available fee listings are presented as annual amounts by year group; the school's public fees page does not publish a detailed multi‑term billing calendar or explicit payment deadlines. Per‑term amounts in this overview are calculated from the published annual totals (annual ÷ 3).

Refund information
- The school's public fees page does not publish a detailed refund or withdrawal policy for tuition, registration, or deposits. No independent, official refund schedule is published on the school's public fees page. For specific withdrawal, refund or deposit conditions, the school's admissions or finance office should be consulted directly.

Fee payment options
- The school's public pages and the published fee listings do not set out specific accepted payment methods (for example: bank transfer, credit card or cash). Publicly available fee summaries do not list payment channels. Contact the school's admissions/finance team to confirm the accepted payment methods and any transaction fees.

Summary points for a parent entering data into a database

If you require these fee figures presented in a different currency or formatted for import, the numbers above are taken from the publicly available fee listings and the per‑term values are calculated from the published annual totals.
Academics

Brighton International School teaches Bespoke Curriculum, British Curriculum for students aged 2 to 12.

Curriculum
Brighton International School delivers the UK national curriculum from Early Years through the secondary key stages, adapted with local context to build international awareness and consistent achievement standards.
The school follows the UK key‑stage structure (Early Years/Foundation through Key Stages 1–4) and teaches the full range of core and foundation subjects (English, mathematics, science, arts and humanities, computing, physical education and modern languages), with formal assessments at the end of each key stage as in the UK framework.
As a government‑registered institution Brighton also delivers the Cambodian (Khmer) national curriculum for Grades 1–6 and provides Khmer language classes in its Early Years programme.
In practice this means pupils follow UK programmes and end‑of‑key‑stage assessments while Khmer curriculum content and language tuition are provided for primary grades to meet MoEYS requirements.
For precise, year‑by‑year subject lists or information about which national exams (MoEYS assessments) pupils may sit, please refer to Brighton's curriculum page or contact the school directly.

Admissions

Admissions
1. Complete the registration form and gather required documents. Brighton provides registration forms in Khmer and English that parents should fill out and submit to the school office; links to both forms are on the Admissions page. You must bring your child's birth certificate or passport, two passport-size photos, parent(s)/guardian(s) ID or passport, and (if available) Health Records/Health Card and Family Book. Note that Health Cards and Family Books are typically held by Cambodian nationals, and the school asks you to declare your child's medical history on the registration form.

2. Attend the interview and, where applicable, the English language test. For children older than four, the school arranges an in-person interview with a faculty member to assess readiness and fit. The school also administers an English language test so it can confirm that your child will be able to access and benefit from Brighton's curriculum and activities. Parents should be prepared to schedule the interview and bring any supporting documents or recent school reports if available.

3. Application review and decision. After submission and assessment, a member of the Admissions team reviews the full application package and communicates whether the child is accepted or deemed non-qualifying. The site states the school will inform families “in a timely manner,” so expect the school to contact you by the email/phone details you provided; if you need a specific timeline ask Admissions directly. If the application is not successful, ask the admissions officer whether any further steps (appeal, re-application window, or alternative year-group entry) are possible.

4. Parent handbook, fee payment and start arrangements. Successful applicants receive (or can download) the parent handbook, which outlines school policies, terms and conditions; Brighton provides both Khmer and English versions on its site. The school's admissions page states that full payment of fees must be settled prior to commencing school and that payment indicates agreement with the handbook policies—so confirm the exact fee amount, payment methods, and any deadlines with Admissions before paying. If you need receipts, installment options, or confirmation of start dates, request written confirmation from the school when you complete payment.

Scholarships
There is no mention of scholarships, bursaries, or fee concessions on the school's public Admissions or Fees pages; the Fees page simply states “Please see below for our full fees for this academic year” and invites parents to contact the school with questions. The website also does not list sibling discounts or other published financial-assistance programs. Because the school's site does not publish scholarship information, families who require fee assistance or who want to ask about sibling discounts should contact the admissions office directly (contact details are on the site) to request a written statement of any available concessions or application procedures.

Waitlist
Brighton's Admissions page explicitly notes that the school accepts applications year-round but that “for some of our year groups there may be a waiting list.” The website does not publish further detail on how the waiting list is managed (for example, whether places are allocated by application date, assessment outcome, or priority rules). Because the school gives only this brief statement online, I recommend contacting Admissions (email/info and phone listed on the site) to ask about: current availability for the specific year group, whether the school holds places on deposit, how waiting-list positions are communicated, and any expected wait times.
