We have enroled our son in The British School of Brasília (BSB) due to the fact that it was offering in-person classes. Although we are very much aware of the risks of the COVID-19 pandemic, we could no longer handle his remote learning at the previous school before BSB in addition to our professional responsibilities. Furthermore, Bernardo was missing the contact with other children very much.
He has flourished in the few months he has attended The British School of Brasilia (BSB), clearly learning a lot and enjoying his days very much. We are also very satisfied with the school's policies regarding the current health crisis. It's been a lovely experience.

We are very happy for having had our children attending The British School of Brasilia (BSB). We are confident that it was the best choice. They will take with them a great and valuable learning experience and fond memories of their time at The British School of Brasilia (BSB)!

Our daughter, Helena Bélkior de Souza e Silva, began attending The British School of Brasília (BSB) in August 2018, entering Year 4 at the age of eight. Over these three amazing years, the school has proven to be an excellent environment in which Helena has grown in various aspects: academically, intellectually, socially, and spiritually. We now have a Year 6 young lady who believes in herself and is not afraid to face any kind of challenge. We truly value the growth mindset that BSB instills through the values of hard work, effective strategies, and quality inputs. We wholeheartedly thank you for your love and support!
Our son, Horácio Bélkior de Souza e Silva, began attending The British School of Brasília (BSB) when he turned 6 years old. Mr T (Mr Thomas) was his teacher and made him feel most welcome and at ease from day 1. Horácio quickly learned English and was able to leave the English as Additional Language (EAL) mentoring to join the group during Extended Curriculum classes, which excited him greatly, with options that went from practicing yoga to "Crazy Coding". Now finishing Year 2 with the sweet and caring Ms McCallum, he is a happy, enthusiastic boy who loves going to school. We are very grateful for the qualified and impeccable attention not only Horácio but also tthat us, parents, received from the school during our time in Brasília. As we are now on our way to Geneva, we are also thankful for the assistance the school provided us in terms of relocation. Wishing the amazing educator Mrs Thomas (Headteacher) and her team all the best in life, always!
Love,
The Bélkiors Family

Our daughter Mehr has had a fruitful time at The British School of Brasilia (BSB).
She liked her class teacher and was happy to have such friendly peers. She will miss BSB.
As parents, we noted a number of good things about BSB and its environment.
Ms. Thomas (the Headteacher) and her team are doing a good job. In particular, we would like to appreciate Ms. Cahill's role as a conscientious and skillful teacher.
We wish BSB all the best in its present and future endeavours.

Dear Mrs. Thomas,
Leonardo and I are very impressed with all the measures adopted by The British School of Brasilia to resume in-person classes, while maintaining high standard safety and organisation procedures. We would like to congratulate you, as the Headteacher, and all the staff for offering a safe and tranquil environment for our children to develop and learn in the middle of an unprecedented pandemic situation.
My son Gabriel is certainly enjoying his classes at the Pre-Nursery. I never saw him so excited about going to school. He went to school previously, but he cried every time. Now, it seems that all that he wants is to go to school. I believe that his teacher, Mr. Joyce, should be credited for Gabriel's engagement and interest in school. Mr. Joyce was capable of making Gabriel feel safe and at ease all the time.
We as parents also appreciate all the support Mr. Joyce has given us during the online lessons. He was always there to answer our questions and to clarify our concerns. His online classes were extremely well prepared. They enabled Gabriel to connect to him so easily even before meeting him in person.
We always knew we wanted our children to study at BSB, but today, more than ever, we are totally sure that we made the right choice.
Thank you very much for your personal and reassuring involvement in the daily life of the school.
Warm regards,
Daniella Abramovay

Prezada Senhora Thomas,
Leonardo e eu estamos muito impressionados com todas as medidas adotadas pela Escola Britânica de Brasília para a retomada das aulas presenciais, mantendo um alto padrão de segurança e procedimentos de organização. Gostaríamos de parabenizá-la, como Diretora, e também a todos os funcionários, por oferecer um ambiente seguro e tranquilo para que nossos filhos se desenvolvam e aprendam em meio a uma situação de pandemia sem precedentes.
Meu filho Gabriel certamente está gostando de suas aulas no Pre-Nursery. Nunca o vi tão animado em ir para a escola. Ele já frequentava escolas antes, mas chorava todas as vezes. Agora, parece que tudo o que ele quer é ir para a escola. Acredito que o professor dele, senhor Joyce, deve ser creditado pelo envolvimento e interesse de Gabriel na escola. O senhor oyce era capaz de fazer Gabriel se sentir seguro e à vontade o tempo todo.
Nós, como pais, também agradecemos todo o apoio que o senhor Joyce nos deu durante as aulas on-line. Ele sempre esteve lá para responder às nossas perguntas e esclarecer nossas preocupações. Suas aulas virtuais foram extremamente bem preparadas. Eles permitiram que Gabriel se conectasse a ele tão facilmente, mesmo antes de conhecê-lo pessoalmente.
Sempre soubemos que queríamos que nossos filhos estudassem na Escola Britânica, mas hoje, mais do que nunca, temos a certeza de que fizemos a escolha certa.
Muito obrigada pelo seu envolvimento pessoal e reconfortante na vida diária da escola.
Atenciosamente,
Daniella Abramovay

I would like to extend our deep appreciation to all teachers and supportive staff of the British School of Brasilia who has given tremendous support to Ayansa and Yunaya with much dedication and commitment during their early academic career under highly qualified academic staff, I am optimistic that such an extraordinary experience and fond memories that they have gathered under your able leadership will remain with them forever when they grow up and become leaders to serve our humanity, while taking care of other beings and our environment on which they have great faith thanks to the outstanding disciplines that they gained from your prestigious institute.
I and my wife would like to extend our sincere appreciation to each and every staff of the British School of Brasilia for their professionalism, unprecedented kindness, and most importantly great care given to Ayansa and Yunaya throughout.

My kids have benefited a lot from their 4 years of learning in BSB. Learning environment is conducive, the academic team is simply amazing ( special mention - Mr Super T and his lovely Mrs Thomas ! ) and the non academic team who is meticulous and attentive. A totally great experience!

Inicialmente, gostaríamos de agradecer muito a toda a comunidade da British School Brasília pelo acolhimento e carinho com as nossas crianças, os dois tiveram excelentes momentos e muitas alegrias na escola. Para nós, pais, é uma imensa alegria saber que toda manhã eles são recebidos pela professora regente de turma e que cada criança tem a oportunidade de falar de si e do seu cotidiano. A escola também oferece um currículo estendido com opções motivadoras, isso é ótimo. Faço um destaque especial à disponibilidade de Mrs. Thomas para ouvir as famílias, nunca tivemos qualquer dificuldade para dialogar com ela, sempre fomos ouvidos tão logo solicitamos e com muita atenção. Muitíssimo obrigada!

We Thank for all teachers and staffs for all these years of caring and developing my son. Here a beautiful cycle ends with good memories that will be eternal in our hearts.
