Nivki Upper Primary and Secondary School - The British International School

Welcome

Pauline Westwood

Head of School

Welcome to Nivki Upper Primary and Secondary School!

20 years ago, the British International School began at this campus. Located in a green and rural setting, the school has a family atmosphere where our students thrive as individuals. We celebrate the achievements of all our students and put great emphasis on the core subjects of English and maths. Our school is the exam centre for the Cambridge Checkpoint and IGCSE exams and we are very proud of the excellent results achieved here.

We offer an extensive programme of after-school activities from table tennis to debating and encourage educational visits to enhance the understanding of the curriculum and beyond.

Most importantly, we encourage our students to pursue their talents and become confident and resilient individuals. They learn to develop a social conscience by supporting local charities and gain a broader understanding of the world by working in harmony with many different nationalities in our school.
