About the School

BSW offers a strong British education, founded in the National Curriculum for England and enhanced to meet the requirements of the Polish Education Ministry. It is located in the upscale Warsaw suburb of Wilanow, where old meets new and city meets country. The historical Royal Palace of King Jan Sobieski overlooks new, stylish cafes and shops as well as leafy green fields and woods. The school has the best of all worlds.

The Primary School opened in early 2015, in purpose-built accommodation on a charming greenfield site, with a handful of Nursery-age children. Numbers for 17-18 have grown to around 160 and there are waiting lists in most yeargroups. Construction is underway to complete the Primary School section and continue through to Senior School. Current targets are for a capacity of 650 students once the whole facility is complete.

BSW is a Candidate Member of COBIS and will undergo a Compliance Inspection during the 2017-18 school year, which will trigger full membership. The School is an independent organisation, not a part of any group of schools. The School’s vision is to encourage the development of Knowledge, Creativity, Intellectual Independence, Inquisitiveness, Self-Confidence, Resilience, Honesty and Compassion in all its students, through the provision of a broad, stimulating and rigorous curriculum, alongside a varied extra-curricular
programme. The development of a strong approach to sport and fitness is an important part of the School’s character.
