About us

English International School of Bratislava

The EISB is an international school located in Ruzinov, a quiet neighborhood where young people learn, thrive, and succeed. For 12 years, we’ve built a community of families from more than 35 nationalities, and international faculty members from around the world.

Our story

EISB started as an independent, innovative school built to answer one question: how do we prepare students for a modern world? Over the course of 12 years, we’ve grown into a fully authorized IB World School and a WASC accredited institution.

In 2022 we brought the American Program into our school, giving families a genuine choice in how their child graduates, while keeping the same close, small class community that shaped us from the start.

our approach

Four skills at the
heart of everything

At EISB, we build our approach around four skills that matter no matter what path a student takes: learning, thinking, reasoning, and communicating. These aren’t new ideas, as educators have discussed them for years, but we’ve committed to building our school culture around them directly, in how we plan lessons, how we assess students, and how classroom conversations turn into real-world projects. Small class sizes allow teachers to know each student individually, while our EAL program ensures that language is never a barrier to success.
