The British School Manila

The British School Manila was established in 1976, with just two classrooms and 32 students. It has now grown to more than 760 pupils, representing 46 nationalities. The school offers an education that nurtures the different strengths and talents of our students, who are exposed to a broad and balanced curriculum.

The school provides the highest quality British education, following the English National Curriculum from Nursery to Year 13. Children are prepared for National Curriculum Tests (NCTs) at age 7, 11, and 14, GCSE at 16 and International Baccalaureate at 18. Children are also prepared for Common Entrance Examinations if required. In all comparative assessments children at BSM perform well above national UK averages.

Class sizes are small with a maximum of 20 students per class. Each child is encouraged to develop at their own rate, benefitting from a high level of individual teacher attention and motivation. Our teachers are UK or Commonwealth trained. Emphasis is placed on self-discipline within a family atmosphere, providing an ideal environment for children of all nationalities.
