The British School of Bahrain (BSB), part of Inspired Education, celebrated the graduation of the Class of 2026 in a ceremony held under the patronage of H.E. Osama Al Alawi, Minister of Social Development. Students, families, faculty and guests gathered to mark the milestone for BSB’s 134 graduating students, who are now heading into the next chapter of their academic and personal lives.
Guests of honour included H.E. Alastair Long, British Ambassador to the Kingdom of Bahrain, and H.E. Ni Ruchi, Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China. Members of the British School of Bahrain’s Board of Directors were also present, along with senior representatives from Inspired Education – including the group’s CEO for MENA.
In his address, H.E. Osama Al Alawi congratulated the Class of 2026 on their achievements and encouraged them to continue pursuing excellence and give back to their communities along the way.
Commenting on the occasion, Liz Stanley, Head of the British School of Bahrain, said: “Today marks a proud moment for our entire school community. Our graduates leave BSB not only with an outstanding academic foundation but also with the values, character, and confidence to make a meaningful contribution to the world around them. We celebrate their achievements and extend our sincere gratitude to our teachers and families, whose unwavering support has helped shape this success. We wish our graduates every success as they embark on the next chapter of their journey.”
Celebrating a Legacy of Excellence at the British School of Bahrain
BSB has been part of Bahrain’s education landscape for more than 30 years now, and it’s earned its place among the Kingdom’s leading international schools. The school is known just as much for its academics as for what happens outside the classroom — sports, performing arts, and a wide range of enrichment programmes. Backed by Inspired Education’s global network of premium schools, BSB sets out to prepare its students not just for top universities, but for life as engaged, responsible citizens of the world.
More than a celebration of one graduating class, the ceremony was really a nod to what’s always defined the BSB experience: ambition, resilience, and a strong sense of community.
