FOBISIA

The British International School is delighted to be a member school of FOBISIA, the Federation of British International Schools in Asia. This is a prestigious federation of 52 of the best British international schools in the region. All member schools are closely scrutinised on application and have to meet an extensive range of quality standards in order to be accepted into the group and to retain membership.

The FOBISIA Games is the best known and perhaps most obvious benefit of FOBISIA membership. The successful format for the games is unique amongst international schools and for the students who represent the school it is a fantastic experience. Each year we enter teams into the Primary Games, the U13 Games and the U15 Games where they compete against a group of 7 other FOBISIA schools with each school taking a turn to act as hosts.

However, FOBISIA is more than just the Games. Each year the very best musicians from the federation take part in a Music Festival. This consists of a week of musical tuition and workshops culminating in a gala concert. Other FOBISIA events for students include collaboration over community service projects, a Model United Nations conference, a primary Mathematics competition, student leadership conference and a Drama Festival.
