BISS Lionesses Shine with Resilience at ACAMIS Tournament

The halls of the Primary School came alive with excitement, creativity and entrepreneurship as our Years 4, 5, and 6 students proudly hosted a new initiative: BISS-ness Day. What began six weeks ago as a mathematics project centred around financial literacy transformed into a vibrant marketplace filled with innovation, determination and student agency.

The British International School Shanghai is entering an exciting new phase of development, with major upgrades designed to enrich every stage of school life — from our youngest learners in Early Years to our Senior School students preparing for university.

Our Year 12 Biology students recently travelled to the DNA Learning Centre in Suzhou for an exciting and enriching two-day experience in modern genetics and biotechnology. Affiliated with the world-renowned Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, a leading biomedical research institution since 1890 and home to eight Nobel Prize winners, the centre provided students with a unique opportunity to experience advanced molecular biology techniques firsthand.

We’re proud to share some exciting news that reflects the incredible dedication of our students, staff, and wider school community. BISS has achieved Silver of the prestigious Social Impact Distinction – marking the school’s significant progress on working within NAE’s Social Impact Distinction programme.
