is an international, coeducational day school, which offers an educational program from kindergarten through grade 12 for students of all nationalities. The school year comprises 2 semesters extending from mid-August to early December, and from early January to late June.
Our school’s curriculum is designed to provide a comprehensive education for students from PK (reception) to grade 12. For PK-grade 5, we follow the Primary Years Program (PYP) of the International Baccalaureate (IB). Our PK class welcomes children who turn 4 by August 31, and kindergarten (Grade 1) is for those who are 5 by August 31.
In these early years, our dedicated class teachers deliver cross-curricular units of inquiry that cover literacy, math, science, and social studies. Specialist teachers enhance the curriculum with modern foreign languages, art, music, and physical education.
As students progress, they transition to the IB Middle Years Program (MYP) in grades 6-10 and then the IB Diploma Program in grades 11-12. The latter is externally examined in grade 12, ensuring a rigorous and internationally recognized education.
We are committed to supporting all our students, including those with mild to moderate learning challenges or those who require assistance with English as an additional language. Admission and placement are based on prior school records and assessments to ensure the best fit for each student.
Our dedication to excellence is affirmed by our full accreditation from the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) and the Council of International Schools (CIS). Choose BMIS for a globally recognized education that nurtures individual growth and learning.
The school operates as a not-for-profit trust under Malawi law, governed by a Board of Trustees elected from among the parents.
