Britannica International School is the longest established British international school in Hungary, catering for children aged 5 – 18 in a welcoming, vibrant and inspirational community, conveniently located in the heart of the capital city.

At Britannica Budapest, we challenge and nurture our students to become responsible, respectful and resolute global citizens. Within our caring and vibrant international community, they evolve into independent and inquisitive lifelong learners, happily striving for excellence in everything they do. Britannica is supported by Orbital Education who provide access to the latest educational thinking and innovative teaching methods from the UK, which enable us to deliver the highest quality education for our students. We are the first international school in Hungary to be fully accredited by both CIS (Council of International Schools) and COBIS (Council of British International Schools), leading organisations for British schools, and are regularly quality assured by both organisations.

Our curriculum is based on the English National Curriculum and enhanced to meet the international needs of our students, with a wide range of subjects taught by specialist teachers, each selected for their experience and excellence. We pride ourselves on being a truly international school community, welcoming over 50 nationalities from all over the world. We forge close relationships between students, parents and teachers, and tailor our curriculum to take full advantage of the opportunities that our vibrant multicultural community offers to collaborate, learn from each other and develop a truly global perspective.

Our son has had a wonderful time at Britannica and loves every part of it very much, whether it concerns friendships, academic programmes or safety and anti-bulling policies. We are thankful for your kindness and professionalism.

As an inclusive international school, our academic excellence makes us incredibly proud. Our students consistently make better progress in their subjects than the global average - a remarkable achievement given that many of our students are non-native English speakers. Our recent examination results are outstanding. 53% of our IGCSE results, and 53% of our A Levels, are at the top A* and A grades, with a 100% pass rate well over the global averages. When they leave us at the end of Sixth Form, all of our graduates continue their studies in their first choice universities around the world.

…a great place, where children can get a superior education in a safe and stimulating international environment.
