Established in 1996, Britannica International School is Hungary’s longest-running British international school, serving students aged 5 to 18 in the heart of Budapest. As a proud member of the Orbital Education group, Britannica delivers a world-class education based on the English National Curriculum, tailored to the needs of over 50 nationalities represented in the school community. With a purpose-built campus in the prestigious Buda Hills, Britannica provides a safe, inspiring environment where students are empowered to thrive academically, socially, and personally.

Academic excellence is a hallmark of the Britannica experience. Students consistently outperform global averages in both IGCSE and A Level examinations, with a 100% pass rate and over 60% of A Level results graded A* or A. These outstanding outcomes are supported by a team of highly experienced and fully qualified teachers, selected for their expertise, passion, and commitment to student success. Lessons are personalised and inclusive, and learning is enriched by innovative teaching methods and cutting-edge resources.

Beyond the classroom, Britannica encourages students to discover their passions through a vibrant co-curricular programme. From robotics to debating, music to chess, and sports to the Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award, students are given every opportunity to broaden their horizons. The school’s House system fosters community spirit and leadership, with older students guiding younger peers through shared experiences and collaborative challenges.

Britannica’s ethos is built on five core values: excellence, respect, responsibility, integrity, and compassion. These values are woven into daily life, shaping confident, globally-minded students who are equipped to navigate the complexities of an interconnected world. At every stage, students are supported to become independent learners, curious thinkers, and respectful citizens.

With full accreditation from both the Council of British International Schools (COBIS) and the Council of International Schools (CIS), Britannica is a trusted choice for families seeking a high-quality British education in Budapest. From its warm, inclusive community to its academic achievements and global perspective, Britannica International School offers a truly outstanding experience for students and educators alike.

I have been a school-level user of Schrole for recruiting for the last three hiring cycles and have found the platform they provide to be intuitive and comprehensive. The user interface stands out from others in the market as a crisp interface with the right level of features included at the right places. For me, the top two features are the ability to create school-specific application questions for applicants, and the availability of a short and long form applicant documentation PDF. If you’re looking for a recruiting platform, I highly recommend considering Schrole.
