BBIS is committed to keeping all students safe, and so following our review, we are making some enhancements.

As of the beginning of October, both upper and access points to BBIS will only be via the turnstile. This means that parents must bring their access cards. When the double gate is open, we are exposed. Keeping it closed means that we are all safer and security is tighter.

We encourage parents to use the café facilities in the morning and after school.
However, to ensure that all students are safe, we have installed barriers to guide visitors to remain in the vicinity of the café. We request your cooperation in not crossing these barriers. Access to the Adult Only bathrooms is at the back of the Dining Room.

The café will stop taking orders in the morning at 8.45 a.m. and we expect all parents to leave the premises by 9:00 a.m.

In the afternoon, the cafe will close at 5:00 p.m. It remains open to BBIS parents who are waiting for their children to have an instrumental lesson or attend a 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. club and or who may be picking up a child from Stay and Play. Parents must wear their BBIS lanyards at these times and must remain in the cafe area.

Parents who choose to remain on site must closely supervise their own children at all times. Children are not allowed to roam freely either indoors or outdoors. BBIS expects that students demonstrate all four core values at all times while on campus. This means showing respect to all, being safe, learning, and caring for everyone and everything. It means that there should be no foul or rude language, irrespective of which language is used. Parents and supervising students must ensure that their children demonstrate the four values.

• If you are visiting the school between 8.45 a.m. and 3.00 p.m., you must use the entrance closest to the school where your meeting is.
• This means using Istenhegyi út 55/B. entrance for all Secondary School and Finance matters.
• Use Zsolna utca 4. entrance for all Primary School matters. 
• All visitors during this time must sign in and out via the specific reception. 
• All parents must wear BBIS lanyards and badges at all times while in the school building or on the school grounds.
• A barrier has been installed next to the gate to the Primary School. Please do not cross this as it guides visitors from the entrance to the reception.

Keeping Everyone Safe

Please all do your part to ensure that all Students at BBIS are safe, by

• Anyone who is not a parent, member of staff, or student must wear a Red lanyard – and remain with the staff member they are visiting.
• Taking photos or videos is not allowed
• It is everyone’s responsibility to report anything suspicious to a member of the safeguarding team. 

We thank all parents for their cooperation and support.

Pastoral care at BBIS involves every member of staff promoting a positive learning environment, allowing children to thrive and develop their full potential. We use the 6 Rs as our foundation: Resilience, Risk Taker, Responsible, Relationships, Reflective and Resourceful. These provide a basis from which children can reflect and determine their own progress but also help the teacher guide the students in attaining a safe and happy environment. We desire for each child to be empowered to set personal goals and work toward them, and we offer a range of support to help them reach their goals and set new ones. We utilise various methods to help children. These might include peer support, counselling or reconciliation strategies, along with more specific help in the wellbeing of individual children, but might also just be a chat about what a child wants to discuss. As pastoral care and wellbeing are the foundation of a child’s development, we take a proactive approach by teaching PSHE (Personal Social Health Education).
