Vision and Leadership
School Vision
BIS endeavours to promote the all-round development of children. We are a close-knit family that focuses on giving individual attention to each student and making learning accessible to all.With the right combination of universal and Indian values, we believe in helping every child grow into a responsible citizen and a good human being.In the 60s and 70s, there were many American families living in the city, but the local schools did not offer a North American model of instruction. The idea of sending their children to a boarding school did not appeal to Eloise R. Bennett and her family (the founders of BIS ). They decided to open their own school in a garage on Millers Road which came to be known as the American Community School and later as Bangalore International School.Today, Bangalore International School is an institution where global education is seamlessly integrated with positive social values, coupled with creative freedom that equips every student with necessary life skills.At BIS we constantly endeavour to nurture students to become responsible citizens and the school's inclusive environment ensures that every learner is offered an exposure that goes beyond text books.We are connected…in building the capacity of all BIS learners for deep conceptual thinking, competency in life-worthy skills, and the character for life’s challenges guided by a personal moral compass.We are a community…inclusive of all learning profiles, welcoming of multiple perspectives, engaged in a continuous conversation among all learning partners about how to sustain and improve quality of learning and life at BIS

We see the immensity of our social responsibility in that the development of young minds gives shape to society in due time; and so we seek to lay a foundation of true education, comprising of values besides scholastic excellence, which can be developed upon through every experience of life.

Dr Anil Kumar
Dr Anil Kumar has over 22 years experience in teaching, administration and management of schools in a multi-city environment. The extensive administrative expertise he has gained spans across multiple geographies and education boards within India. Dr Kumar is a go-getter having strong logical and critical thinking skills supported with persuasive communication skills. He is adept at creating innovative strategies and formulating administrative policies resulting in accelerated growth of the organization he leads. His technical and management skills consistently serve to further school’s academic results and institutional ranking in the community it serves. The role of a ‘Principal’ changed after the pandemic. Keeping in mind the holistic development of every child, Bangalore International Academy continues to evolve, facilitate 21st century skills and prepare students for higher education. In order to bridge the learning styles of individuals, a safe learning environment with state-of-the-art classrooms have been designed. This encompasses classes at the Montessori level, math lab, robotics lab that is operational in the school. STEAM education has been implemented in classroom instruction and in after-school programmes. We have integrated music, dance, outdoor and indoor sports with academics. To help kids explore avenues for higher education, several enrichment activities and field trips, such as trip to the NASA Space Station are organised. Anil Kumar believes that every individual has the capacity to become a leader. Hence, annual school council elections are conducted at the institute. Student-led and managed events, scouts and guides camp, ISA activities, and so on are organized as well. To facilitate an array of experiences, several opportunities are provided to different grades through camps where, cleanliness and hygiene, theme-based movies, activities to make the best out of waste, cooking without fire, theme-based fancy dress, clay model competitions, active speaking and listening skill test, potluck lunches, and exhibitions on art integration projects are hosted. The ebb and flow of the education system requires school leaders to pivot several times for betterment of the learning process. A newer experience is always about trying untried ones such as peer-to-peer learning, activity-based learning, student presentations and international exchange programmes with schools in Japan and the Netherlands. Such self-managed tasks helped students build on their leadership skills for example, by helping teachers organise school trips. CBSE training programmes and collaborations with EdTech partners such as Veda Handwriting, RoboGenius, and QtPi Robotics have made a difference in upskilling students and teachers. Teachers are provided quarterly assesments supported by Indic Education. These assesments help teachers to relect on their performance and identify gaps. With hybrid teaching and learning in place, cyber-use awareness programmes are organised to educate students and parents. Teachers are guided through ways and measures so that they become change-makers in their classrooms. At Bangalore International Academy we believe in creating humble and empathetic human beings. Practices such as the ‘Book of Good Deeds’ where students record their experiences proved to be helpful for kids to pick up and practice empathy and self-understanding
