Rispins International School in Ethiopia operates two campuses, Bahir Dar and Bishoftu, serving learners from Kindergarten through an embryonic High School. As a satellite of the British International School Addis Ababa, it combines the British Curriculum with a bespoke program and incorporates the Ethiopian National curriculum, taught in English with local language study where appropriate. Class sizes of 28–30 support small-group instruction and individualized feedback. The Bishoftu campus offers extensive sports facilities, while the Bahir Dar campuses host a Saturday Spoken English for Kids program and outreach initiatives. A distinctive feature is drama and theatre as a core learning method, including a historic Macbeth production. The school collaborates with Cheshire – Action for Inclusion to support inclusive education and scholarships. Community projects and expanded language, professional and academic skills are emphasized through outreach. Events include Nations and Nationalities Day and Graduation Day, underscoring international exposure in an Ethiopian setting.
