Welcome to the British International School of Tbilisi

A very warm welcome to the British International School of Tbilisi (BIST).  A dynamic learning community nurturing and inspiring every individual to be the best that they can be. Our fantastic campus overlooking the beautiful Lisi Lake is home to over 500 students from 3 to 18 years old. Here at BIST we embrace a community of families from over 50 nations all around the world.  Together we approach education ensuring that our students are at the heart of everything we do, empowering them to become compassionate, kind and globally-minded individuals.

While instilling a love of learning, we maintain high expectations for every child and focus on academic excellence.  We blend an international primary curriculum that embraces outdoor learning, with Cambridge GCSEs and A Levels to ensure creativity and conceptual understanding underpin an academically rigorous curriculum.  This is supplemented by our exciting extra-curricular program including creative arts, sports, local and international trips that ensure a truly holistic education.

We believe every child can succeed in our inclusive environment as we provide the pathways and support for their individual needs. Our highly skilled teachers embrace creative and innovative approaches to learning, ensuring BIST students are fully equipped with the qualifications, skills and mindset to follow their dreams. Most importantly, we nurture in our students the power of self- worth, as they develop the confidence and resilience to live successful, purposeful and fulfilling lives that contribute towards a better global society.

We look forward to welcoming you and your family!
