The British International School of Zagreb (BISZ) opened its doors for the first time on September 09, 2013. It is the sister school to Kreativan razvoj Primary School, a private educational institution that has been operating for eighteen years. It is one of the leading primary schools in Croatia, Zagreb. Kreativan razvoj Primary School for the past eighteen years had a great population of students outside Croatia, showed remarkable results in learning foreign languages, especially English, and numerous suggestions of parents of our students foreigners were one of the reasons for the establishment of the British International School of Zagreb. In the British International School of Zagreb students work in small classes and we try to provide students with optimal conditions for the development of creativity and the discovery of their talent. The Primary Section follows the English National Curriculum alongside the inquiry based International Primary Curriculum (IPC). This is one of the fastest growing learning frameworks in the world that is used by over 80 countries and 1500 national and international schools. Our students are immersed in the school environment for a whole day, all curricular and extra-curricular activities, including study time and sports activities (basketball, table tennis, handball, volleyball and swimming) are incorporated in school hours from 9 a.m. until 4.35 p.m. Generally students, especially in the lower grades, are not required to do homework during the week. However, if students participate in all elective and extra-curricular programs, they may require extra work at home. Students are served three meals a day at a school dining hall and they arrive to school using public or organised transport. The school and its surrounding area are under 24-hour electronic surveillance and a security guard is on site. This safety aspect is of crucial importance to parents who choose to enroll their children in our school. School uniforms are compulsory and in this way we protect our children from the pitfalls of consumer society. As a part of their studies, our students also travel the world in order to meet other nations, their culture, history and customs. These travels are a part of their education, but are not mandatory. Moreover, a joint skiing trip is organized every winter, which a lot of parents choose to partake in with their children.
