Keeping parents and community members involved in the educational process is the key to student success
Family Engagement
We want the best for your child, and by working in partnership we can successfully enrich your child’s journey through our British International School of Västerås (BISV).
We surround our students with a connected and supportive community that will improve their educational success by empowering families with convenient access to school and student information so they can impact their child’s success.
Close communication is at the core of our partnership approach.
