The British School St. Petersburg (BSSP) is an international school chartered by The Schools Trust (TST), the UK registered, non-profit organization. Its principal function is the governance of member schools following the TST School Charter. Our school’s mission is to be “A World Leading School,” which means nothing less than having the highest standards in everything we do. We are unashamedly ambitious with the education we provide, ensuring our children thrive, not just academically, but also personally and socially. Every child who attends our school is unique and we endeavor to instill not only a love of learning but values and experiences, that will remain with them throughout their lives.
At The British School of St Petersburg, we develop the whole child. We provide each pupil with the skills, knowledge, and understanding that enable them to become proficient as specialists in every field. We acknowledge that the core foundations of a successful education are built upon reading, writing, and mathematics, but we also endeavor to see students succeed in the arts, sciences, humanities, and sports by giving them a wide variety of access and opportunities to these subjects.
The teachers at our school are not just specialist teachers in the classroom, they are blessed with a wide range of skills and enthusiasm that inspire the children. Their expertise extends across areas as diverse as drama, singing, rugby, netball, swimming, football, French, and music. Our curriculum and timetable allow children to enjoy their learning as they discover and evolve through lessons and activities tailored to their needs and abilities.
From the age of two, we have a community of children, staff, and parents who share a common goal of watching the children and school thrive and achieve the high standards that are constantly set. We know that for anyone to succeed they have to feel safe and confident in their surroundings. We want everyone at BSSP to have fun, explore, take chances, and have an undiluted ambition in the knowledge there is always someone there to help guide them to the next step regardless if they triumph or make a mistake.
Whether children have goals of entry into elite independent UK schools and universities or to be Nobel Prize Winners, World Cup Winners or appear on the West End, we are confident that as a cohesive community of teachers and parents we have both the atmosphere and facilities to make those dreams become a reality. To be an exemplary educational institution dedicated to the proposition that every child should be inspired to achieve extraordinary success. To realize this, we will instill in them a love for learning, a relentless pursuit of ambitious goals, and respect for core values in line with the very best of our British educational heritage.
