Berlin - School Report Question and Answers

Are other schools available to expatriates in this city? Why did you choose this particular school?

There are other schools available. We chose this one initially because of its strong reputation as we understood it prior to post, and the bilingual learning appealed to us. My husband was able to visit the school, got a tour, and we were overall excited about the school prior to moving here. - Sep 2018


We were looking for a school with the PYP/IB curriculum and BIS also offered some differentiation for math, which was important as one of our children was in AAP in Fairfax and was working well above grade level. The proximity of the school was also important -- it's only 2km from our housing -- because our kids were on a bus for 1+ hour each way at our last post. - Oct 2015


This is the first post we have been to with a bilingual/bicultural school option. My kids are learning German quickly and have made many German/American and German friends. The school also has a very strong academic reputation. - Apr 2014
