British International Academy (BIA) is a private girls' IB World School located in Amman, Jordan. It holds Diploma Programme authorization since March 19, 2019, and offers the IB continuum including the Primary Years Programme and Middle Years Programme. A public professional profile indicates a planned opening in September 2016 for KG1 to Grade 8, suggesting early operations prior to full IB authorization. The school is led by Head of School Ghada Zabalawi and operates from the Dabouq area of Amman as a private IB-focused institution.
The student body is female and spans roughly ages 4 to 18, with instruction in English and Arabic. Graduation ceremonies are a key community event, and the 2025 graduation was held under the patronage of HRH Princess Jalila bint Ali, with attendance by families, faculty, and graduates. Such events reflect active involvement of families in the school community and a connection to Jordan's broader public life.
