The British School of Bahrain (BSB) has achieved a remarkable milestone by being included in Carfax’s Global School Index, earning its place among the “Top 150 Private Schools Worldwide” and the “Top 15 Schools in the Middle East.”

The school owned by Inspired Education Group is the only school in Bahrain to be listed in the 2024 rankings.

This recognition underscores BSB’s commitment to academic excellence, making it one of only two schools in Bahrain to receive such an honour.

This achievement follows BSB’s consistent performance, having maintained the best A-Level results in the country for the past five years.

The school has also been rated “Outstanding in all areas” by both the British Schools Overseas (BSO) and the Education & Training Quality Authority (BQA).

Additionally, BSB was previously the only school in Bahrain to be featured in Carfax’s list of the “Top 25 Private Schools to Watch Worldwide.” Founder, Chairman and CEO of Inspired Education, Nadim Nsouli, said, “Only the best schools in the world are part of Inspired and we are honoured to have the British School of Bahrain being named among the ‘Top 150 Private Schools Worldwide’.

This recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our teachers, students, and the entire BSB community. At Inspired Education Group, we remain focused on delivering worldclass education and preparing future leaders who will make a positive impact globally.”

Carfax Education, a leading global education specialist founded in Oxford in 1997, has recognised BSB for its commitment to academic excellence, innovative teaching methodologies, and exceptional student outcomes.

The Global School Index is a comprehensive assessment that considers various factors, including academic performance, extracurricular activities, and overall school environment.

Head of Education at Carfax Education, Fiona McKenzie, Head of Education, Carfax Education, said: “Now in its fifth year, The Schools Index has become a valuable resource for parents looking for the very best education for their child, wherever they are in the world - as well as for the private schools sector.

The demand for excellent schools continues to grow and remains fiercely competitive as parents strive to ensure their child receives the strongest foundations to set them up for a lifetime of success.”

The school renowned for its rigorous academic curriculum and holistic approach to education, has consistently demonstrated a dedication to nurturing well-rounded individuals. The inclusion in the “Top 150 Private School Worldwide” by Carfax Education is a testament to the school’s relentless pursuit of excellence in education.

Executive Headteacher, Liz Stanley, commented “We are honoured to have achieved a place on this highly sought-after global list, recognised by the esteemed organisation Carfax Education.

The Bahrain community has always recognised BSB as the leading British School in Bahrain, and the school is now being recognised internationally. We are proud that BSB’s collective efforts and community spirit continue to be acknowledged globally.”
