British Academia. American Grit.
An International Educationfor a Larger Life.
Your life can move. Your education doesn’t have to start over.
One school,wherever life leads.
TBIS provides academic continuity, structure, community and flexibility for students whose locations, schedules or circumstances may change.
Explore our schoolLives in motion.
Our students are the children of diplomats and engineers, performers and athletes, executives and service families, and of anyone whose life asks school to keep up. Here is how TBIS keeps learning continuous, wherever the next chapter is.
An international assignment
Nairobi. Perth. Lima. Houston.One school for the next move.
Energy careers carry families across continents. With four virtual campuses and two learning windows a day, a new posting changes the time zone, not the school.
An illustrative story inspired by TBIS families. Not a testimonial.
A diplomatic posting
New posting, same school.
Choose the virtual campus that matches the new time zone, and keep the same school from one posting to the next.
On tour
Lessons by day, the stage by night.
Two learning windows each day, Session I in the morning and Session II later in the day, so class fits around rehearsal and the show.
Training camp & away matches
The tournament calendar comes first.
Competitions are exactly what Family Flex Days are for: 17 each year, and a Flex Day is never an absence.
An executive move
A mid-year move, without the mid-year gap.
While the family settles, students may be able to join individual classes through another TBIS virtual campus.
A service family
New orders, a new address, the same school.
Moving house is one of the reasons Family Flex Days exist. The address changes; the school doesn’t.
A year at sea
A classroom that sails.
Live classes in a fixed learning window, and pathways toward Pearson Edexcel qualifications and NCAA-approved core courses, from wherever the anchor drops.
On set
Between takes, back to class.
An extended calendar with room for travel, competitions and the unexpected, and we show you exactly how the year adds up.
Scenes above are illustrative photography, not TBIS students or families.
Learning to live, to live to learn.
Learning should prepare students for life. Life should continually deepen their learning.
“We learn so we can live with purpose, and we live in ways that give us something more to learn.”— TBIS Founder
“Learning to live, to live to learn” is the philosophy at the heart of TBIS. We believe education should give students more than academic knowledge. It should develop the curiosity to explore, the discipline to follow through, the confidence to adapt, and the ability to carry learning into whatever comes next.
A global classroom,on your family’s schedule.
Four virtual campuses keep live classes in daylight hours on every continent, so your family joins the learning window that fits where life has taken you.
