Parent Experience

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

Community

BISA is committed to the school community, the local community and the global community and has a truly international outlook. A genuine 'family feel' helps transitions between sections, with literacy support sessions, the Music Keys program and boarding family groups serving students across ages. Home-school links are strong through a digital newsletter and blog, with regular parent/teacher consultations and reports; families are invited to events, and the Parent Representative Group values parent and student voices. Saturday School, now in its sixth year, supports local children in reading, mathematics, physical education and team building, and BISA undertakes environmental and community projects, including recycling with Chanzi-Okota, fundraising for Walk in Love and Maternity Africa, and offsetting transport emissions with Carbon Tanzania.

Parent-Teacher Association

The BISA PTA supports a vibrant school community that promotes engagement among teachers, parents and students. It funds key school projects, provides volunteer support for activities, runs community events and encourages dialogue across the school. All parents and guardians of BISA students are members. An executive committee is elected at Annual General Meetings to represent the parent body.
