Bangladesh School Bahrain is a community school established in 1995 to provide education for the children of Bangladeshi parents in Bahrain.

The School offers both the National Curriculum of Bangladesh and the Cambridge International Curriculum. The National Curriculum of Bangladesh is offered from Grade 1 to 12, while the Cambridge International Curriculum is offered from Grade 6 to Grade 10 as an option. Students who follow the Bangladeshi curriculum sit for public examinations in Grades 5, 8, 10 and 12 conducted by the Dhaka Education Board.

The school’s kindergarten section admits students of four and five years and follows a self-made syllabus. Students up to age 18 can be admitted into the higher secondary classes.

Fees for the British International Curriculum are among the lowest in the Kingdom and the school has reached a milestone of enrolling more than 1,000 students.

The School has nearly 60 teachers and classroom assistants and boasts facilities such as an IT lab, science lab and library.

The school day runs from 7.30am to 2.30pm operating around 180 days in any academic year.
