About this school
Bali Island School (BIS) opened in September 1986 as Bali International School, a parent-funded non-profit foundation that started with eight primary students taught by a Canadian couple. By 1992 it had more than 150 primary students from 26 countries. In 2014 it took its current name under an Indonesian ministerial decree requiring international schools to rename. It remains on its original site in Banjar Taman, Sanur.
BIS serves Pre-K to Grade 12 with over 300 students. It became an IB Middle Years Programme school in 1999 and a full IB continuum school in 2004, adding the Primary Years Programme and the Diploma Programme. Many students hold dual nationalities, often with an Indonesian parent.
The campus has a Balinese character and includes a library of about 40,000 titles, a six-lane competition swimming pool, two large sports fields and covered courts. Co-curricular activities run after school, and admissions are open year round on a first-come, first-served basis.
