What sets us apart

13 years. The strongest accreditation record of any British school in Tunisia.

13 years. Three independent accreditations. A government recognition. And an African Excellence Award 2025. This is what accountability looks like.
1
The most independently verified British school in Tunisia 
BIST is Tunisia's first BSO and COBIS-accredited school, and the only COBIS-accredited school in the country. We are inspected by ISI, the body the UK government uses to assess British schools overseas. We are formally recognised by the UK Department for Education and accredited by the Tunisian Ministry of Education. You do not have to take our word for it. Three independent bodies already have.

Programmes that prepare your child for university and for life 
Duke of Edinburgh Award. Model United Nations. Service Learning. Work Experience. Life Skills. Forest and Beach School. Primary Science Quality Mark. These are not enrichment extras added to look good on a brochure. They are how BIST pupils arrive at university interviews with more to say than their exam results.
3
A pastoral team, a counsellor, and SEN support looking out for your child every day 
Every pupil at BIST has a dedicated pastoral care team, a full-time school counsellor, and SEN support available from day one. If your child is struggling academically, socially, or emotionally, there is a named person whose job it is to notice and act. That support is there from Early Years all the way through Sixth Form. It does not switch on when there is a problem. It is always on.
