Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
BSY operates a formal school uniform. The uniform is designed to promote focus, pride, and a sense of community and is produced by a top British clothing manufacturer. The fabrics used are the same as those used by top European fashion brands.
BSY provides hot, healthy, international lunchtime meals and snacks prepared by the school catering service. Meals are regularly checked by independent experts to ensure balanced nutrition; snacks are provided for Early Years, while older students may bring their own snacks; nuts are not allowed due to allergies.
BSY has a four-house system. In 2023 four new houses were introduced: Perseus, Pegasus, Polaris, and Phoenix, each aligned with Courage, Adventure, Integrity, and Kindness respectively. Each student is assigned to a house on entry; houses participate in year‑round inter-house competitions across sport, academics, and community activities, with a House Cup awarded to the top house.
The British School Yangon is governed as part of Nord Anglia Education, a global operator of premium international schools. The school is part of the Nord Anglia Education family, which provides access to global resources and collaborations (e.g., MIT and UNICEF). It is also a member of FOBISIA.
