Trevor Rowell, COBIS Chair, has shared his intention to retire after a decade of outstanding leadership

COBIS have announced a new collaboration with QAA (the Quality Assurance Agency), to externally quality assure the global COBIS Patron’s Accreditation and Compliance scheme (PAcc). Now in its fifth year of operation, this popular and well-established accreditation scheme has seen more than 200 schools in 67 countries engage in the process, which is deeply rooted in long-term school improvement to help schools, students and staff thrive.

Our Supporting Associate of the Year Award saw CENTURY's project with British School Salalah and British School Muscat Oman take first prize. 

More than 550 in-person and virtual participants took part in our 40^th Annual Conference last weekend, 7-9 May, in Park Plaza Westminster Bridge, London, and online.

COBIS has published new research on Teacher Supply in British International Schools, delivered in partnership with ISC Research Ltd. This research, based on c.1,600 survey responses from senior leaders and teachers, provides concrete data about the profile and motivation of teachers entering and leaving the British international school sector, the quality of their experience, the movement between sectors, the current teacher recruitment climate in international schools, and the impact of Covid-19. Responses were collected between January 2022 and February 2022.
