The British International School Abu Dhabi Wins Isa Community Initiative Award!

There were over 250 nominations from leading international schools around the world and the British International School Abu Dhabi was one of three shortlisted for the Community Initiative award for a sustainability/architecture project completed by Year 6 students during the 2018/19 academic year.

Sustainability, Architecture and the City was a joint research project between Abu Dhabi University (ADU) and Year Six students at the British International School Abu Dhabi, which culminated in an exhibition of the students’ research and innovative designs. The partnership of the two academic institutions provided a valuable opportunity to raise awareness of architecture, design and sustainability amongst the community and most importantly to make a difference to and inspire future generations. The project culminated in a four-day exhibition in the main lobby at ADU; this was open to the general public and showcased the students’ learning incorporated in scale architectural drawings and models, prototypes of sustainable and environmentally friendly design ideas and presentations.

Head of Primary, Mike Wolfe said “As always, we are immensely proud of our students and school, and this success highlights again the strength of our community.”

This award further enhances The British International School Abu Dhabi’s reputation as one of the leading international schools in the world. There are an estimated 10,000 international schools around the world teaching over 5 million students.
