SCHOOL LIFE
More than a school.
A community.
With 29 nationalities and fewer than 300 students, ASB is a place where everyone knows your name - and your story.
With 29 nationalities and fewer than 300 students, ASB is a place where everyone knows your name - and your story.
With students from 29 nationalities, on any given day, you'll hear a dozen languages on our playground. Children grow up surrounded by different cultures and perspectives - not because it's on the curriculum, but because it's the air they breathe.
ASB is a non-profit school governed by a Board of Trustees made up of current parents - not a corporate school run from headquarters in another country. Every strategic decision is made by people whose own children walk these corridors, creating a level of accountability and care that no corporate model can match.
The Parent-Teacher Organization is the heartbeat of the ASB community. Run entirely by volunteer parents, the PTO organizes social events, fundraisers, and community-building activities throughout the year. From the welcome picnic for new families to the annual International Day celebration, the PTO creates the connections that make ASB feel like home.
The PTO welcomes all families - involvement is easy and always appreciated.
"Our community feels like a family. You're not just a number - you're known."
Some of the most memorable moments at ASB aren't in the classroom - they're the traditions that bring the whole school together.
CAS and international exchanges are built into the ASB experience. MUN and other co-curricular programmes extend that learning beyond the classroom — and they're exactly the kind of experiences universities look for in IB graduates.
In a school this size, wellbeing isn't a department - it's a culture. Teachers notice when something is off. The Student Support Services team works alongside families to ensure every child feels safe, supported, and able to learn.
ASB also offers university admissions and career counseling for older students, helping them navigate the transition from school to higher education with confidence and clarity.
ASB implements the Kiva program - an evidence-based anti-bullying initiative developed at the University of Turku. Through structured lessons and a whole-school approach, students learn to recognize, prevent, and address bullying behavior.
ASB maintains a phone-free environment during the school day. Students are present, engaged, and connected to each other - not to screens.
The safety and wellbeing of every child is our highest priority. ASB has comprehensive safeguarding policies, regular staff training, and clear reporting procedures. Every adult in our community is trained and accountable.
The best way to understand ASB's community is to be in it - even for an hour. Visit us, meet the teachers, and feel the difference.
