The school teaches in English and delivers the English National Curriculum through the International Baccalaureate framework. World Languages are central to learning, with Modern Languages offered in French and Spanish. An English as an Additional Language (EAL) program supports students for whom English is not their first language, with small-group pull-out lessons and in-class support. During EAL, pull-out lessons are provided in place of French or Spanish to help students access the curriculum.
Located on the East River in Kips Bay, The British International School of New York educates students from age 3 to 18 on a campus. The school offers a blended curriculum that combines the English National Curriculum with IB approaches in the Primary and Middle Years, and Cambridge IGCSE and A Levels in Upper School. Early Years integrates the UK Early Years Foundation Stage with the IB Primary Years Programme; Lower School uses the EN Curriculum within an IB framework; Middle School provides IB-based inquiry alongside IGCSE preparation; Upper School follows IGCSE and A Levels. Opened in 2006, BIS-NY launched its Upper School in 2018. Facilities include outdoor play areas, onsite swimming pool, science labs, art studios, libraries, dedicated spaces for music, languages, STEM and design. Additional strengths include a truly robust performing arts program, language clubs, and after-school activities led by groups such as Green Team and BIS-NY Bulldogs.
