Director's welcome

Dear reader,

I am thrilled to welcome you to the British International School of Zagreb. We are a boutique small school that has been providing exceptional education to the expatriate, diplomatic, corporate and local communities of Zagreb for over 5 years. BISZ is considered as a pioneer in education in Croatia as it was elected as one of 74 recognised schools in leading innovation and change in education (Cambridge Strategies – Innovation 800). Therefore our contribution to education in not only Zagreb and Croatia but internationally, is of valued importance.

With students coming to the British International School of Zagreb from over 40 countries, we embrace out diversity and celebrate our uniqueness as we strive for excellence. Students follow the inquiry approach as they develop skills and understandings which enable them to meet the demands of an ever changing world. Our safe learning environment promotes risk taking in order to find success in new things. By not taking risks and facing challenges, learning cannot take place.

The British International School of Zagreb is located in an elegant, modern, spacious and self-contained building of 9,000m2, close to the centre of Zagreb (within 5km of the city centre) and surrounded with 25,000m2 of sporting courts and green areas. Our goal is to engage learners from a very young age so that they become problem solvers, inquirers and risk takers. We celebrated their talents, effort and accomplishments.

We have highly qualified experienced staff representing a variety of cultures and nationalities, all well proficient in teaching a dissimilar student body. A philosophy of practical and problem-based learning pervades the classroom as students make meaning from their discoveries.

By offering a broad and balanced UK based international curriculum, we provide our students with opportunities to develop their interests, promoting inquiry and analysis of deep and meaningful questions and striving to find answers.

We are honoured to be the premier internationally focused school in Zagreb and Croatia and to be contributing to the future of this beautiful country. By making clear connections to our host country where appropriate, we entwine the rich culture of Croatia into our school and provide a local, national as well as an international context and approach to our learning.

We are accredited by COBIS (The Council of British International Schools) and CAIE (Cambridge Assessment International Education), having met their demanding standards and are authorised to offer the famous IGCSE, AS and A-level Programmes that open the doors for our graduates to the finest colleges and universities around the world.

I welcome you to browse over our website for more information, or better yet, schedule a visit so you can personally experience the warmth and focus of our school

Sincerely,

Tino Sven Časl, MBA

Director - British International School of Zagreb

British International School of Zagreb visit to Zagreb Zoo
The British International School of Zagreb has organised a visit to the Zagreb Zoo for its students to visit different animals and their habitats. The students could get to know some of the animals by looking through the fence or glass, but also up close by petting them. Some of the habitats were so vivid and full of rare animals that students took pictures and read the descriptions on every info wall. The weather was nice, so the British school also organised lunch in a nearby restaurant. With laughter and socialising in a nice environment, the students talked and described their experiences with their colleagues and teachers while eating good food.

Primary students presentation of the British International School of Zagreb
Primary students of the British International School of Zagreb presented their works that they had been diligently creating for the past 6 weeks in the library. On a pre-selected topic, they researched the material, extracted important information and then created a poster in order to better and more easily show their colleagues that they themselves had mastered the topic assigned to them. As it is a British international school, we could hear interesting facts about women throughout history, Great British people or Britons, space and the human brain. All this was researched by our diligent students, collected data and delighted us with a wonderful presentation. With a lot of new information and interesting events, the students exchanged ideas and created the impression of a real desire to learn the material and transfer knowledge to the other participants of this event. We will be honest in the description, so we can say that the professors learned some of the things for the first time at these presentations

King Charles III
On Tuesday 14th November King Charles III was celebrating his 75th birthday. The book about his life The Leadership and Vision of a Modern Monarch was lunched that Tuesday in the most prestigious hotel in London Claridge’s in front of 200 invited guest among whom was also our Principal Dr. Sci. Martin-Tino Časl with his wife Zdenka Časl. Author is Robert Robson who has been a keen observer of the Royal Family and the history, tradition and changing persona of British royalty for more than 30 years. A royal editor and correspondent for major media outlets around the world, he has extensive first-hand experience of royal life – both in the glare of public scrutiny and behind the scenes – having toured with the royals on countless occasions. Arthur Edwards, whose photography features within pages of book, is a legend of royal reporting. From the mid-‘70s onwards, wherever the senior royals have traveled, Arthur and his camera have accompanied them, documented over 200 royal tours to more than 120 countries. The book also includes a wider societal narrative, highlighting stories of success and progress during His Majesty’s lifetime in social, technological and commercial spheres. The book presents a celebration of Charles’s life and achievements in the year of his Coronation and 75th birthday, and looks forward to how he intends to shape the future of the monarchy over the years to come. The book has 6 chapters: The young prince; Family life; The new king; The global leader; An environmental pioneer; A vision of modern Britain. In the last chapter there are several British schools presented including British International School of Zagreb. We are very honored that our school is included in this magnificent monograph. It was presented by authors and Craig Vye from St James's House. In a very spontaneous environment, the three of them told numerous anecdotes about Charles's life from his school days to the present day. They were joined by Kevin Gant - The Mirror Photographer and Ken Wharfe - Former personal protection officer to the Princess of Wales, Prince William and Prince Henry. Our Principal spent a pleasant afternoon talking to old acquaintances from previous promotions at Westminster Abbey, two and four years ago. The pictures show part of the atmosphere from that event.
