BIS Purpose
BIS - A place for everyone to grow and flourish.
At Bavarian International School (BIS) we believe that education is not just about imparting knowledge, but about creating a nurturing environment where every individual can belong and flourish. As we continue to evolve and grow, we are excited to introduce our new Statement of Purpose going into effect with the 2024-25 school year – a reflection of our core values and our unwavering commitment to our community.
BIS is a welcoming, respectful, and caring international learning community, where everyone has the right to belong and flourish.
Encouraged to believe and trust in ourselves and one another, we know that we can inspire others, innovate, and succeed in becoming the best we can be.
Together, we engage in making positive and meaningful contributions to a more sustainable and peaceful future.
Our Shared Understanding of Learning
Guided by our new Statement of Purpose, we believe that everyone can achieve success through inquiry, collaboration, and a supportive environment. At BIS, we understand that learning is a process of growth, development and transformation. We believe everyone can learn and succeed when:
- We engage in inquiry, experiences, collaboration and reflection.
- We are challenged, inspired, empowered and can exercise agency.
- We take risks in a supportive culture.
- We make connections and develop conceptual understanding.
