The British Schools Foundation aims to promote quality British-style education worldwide.[1] Currently the organisation charters ten schools serving expatriate communities in China, Russia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Spain, Uzbekistan and Brazil.
All schools in the group follow the English National Curriculum.[2] According to the British Schools Foundation website, some BSF-founded schools are now part of Nord Anglia Education.[3]
