Descriptiontext

British International School, Lubumbashi (BIS Lubumbashi) is a private K-12 international school headquartered at No. 10, Avenue Munguzi, Commune Kampemba, in Lubumbashi, Haut-Katanga, Democratic Republic of the Congo. The school delivers education from Early Years through High School and serves families in Lubumbashi and the wider DRC seeking internationally recognized qualifications. Its flagship academic offering is the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (DP), and it is pursuing candidacy for the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP) to extend its IB continuum to students aged 11-16.

The school is differentiated by a stack of exclusive accreditations and authorizations that are unique within DRC: it is the only authorized IB World School in the country, the only COBIS (Council of British International Schools) accredited institution, the only IELTS Registration Centre in DRC, and the first Microsoft Qualified Academic Institution in the region. It also holds UNESCO accreditation. Teaching is supported by technology-enabled classrooms equipped with smartboards, projectors, and air-conditioning, and the school operates a mobile application on Google Play to engage parents and students.

BIS Lubumbashi generates revenue primarily through recurring annual tuition fees across Early Years, Primary, and Secondary levels, with a tiered fee structure (2023-24) disclosed via the school website. The go-to-market model is direct-to-consumer admissions open year-round, supported by digital marketing through its website, Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn, with no intermediaries or channel partners. The institution is owner-operated, with no disclosed parent company, holding structure, or external investors, and employs approximately 35 staff at a single campus in Lubumbashi.
