At BIC, we challenge and stretch our students to become responsible, respectful and independent global citizens
Your school essentials
At both schools, our lunches are freshly prepared by an external catering company who offer healthy school lunches with a varied menu, taking into consideration allergies and food preferences.
Fresh salad and fruit are always available. Lunch menus are provided each month by our catering company and ordered online.
A school meal is not compulsory and children can bring in a packed lunch.
Students are allowed to bring a small healthy snack to eat during break times. No sweets, chocolate or chewing gum are allowed on the school premises.
Please note we are also a nut-free school.
BIC operates an 'Open Door Policy' and we urge parents to get in touch over even small matters. If a parent feels there is a particular issue which needs to be discussed with a student's teacher, a Head of Department or a member of the senior team including the Principal, they should contact the school to make an appointment.
At the start of the new school year, new parents and students are invited to an induction morning just before the term begins. In addition, all new parents are invited to meet with their child's class teacher or tutor within the first month.
In the first few weeks of term, each Primary class holds a meeting to explain what to expect in the year ahead. In addition, our Head of Secondary hosts a number of information afternoons for each Year group.
There are two Academic Review days held throughout the year when parents have a formal meeting with their child's class teacher or tutor to review progress and targets.
Progress reports are issued at various times throughout the school year.
