mkultra25 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 The linked article wasn't clear on whether this would be an additional campus, or whether they will relocate from the current site, but the press release states that they will relocate and close the existing campus (and presumably put the property up for sale): http://www.nordangliaeducation.com/our-schools/houston/article/2014/11/11/a-new-campus-for-the-british-international-school-of-houston The current campus has housed a succession of schools since the early 1970s, when it was built for Northwest Academy, the predecessor to both Houston Christian High School and First Baptist Academy. It was vacated when the new HCHS facility was built off of Beltway 8, and the British International School subsequently took over in 2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChannelTwoNews Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 https://www.bisnow.com/archives/newsletter/commercial-real-estate/houston/3644-the-deal-sheet/ The British International School of Houston (BISH) acquired 33 acres on the southwest corner of Westgreen Boulevard and Franz Road in West Houston for a new campus. The location is a mile north of I-10 and 2.3 miles east of the Grand Parkway. BISH will build a 274k SF and 2,000-seat campus to serve Pre-K through 12th grade, which will open in September 2016. BISH's current campus seats 1,000 and will close when the new facilities open. Cushman & Wakefield's Andrew Spence and Cape Bell repped the buyer. John Deboben repped seller KUT Partners.

Sunstar Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 What will they be teaching? British accent? I assume it's for expats mainly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

august948 Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 European countries have national curricula that expat parents frequently want their children to follow so they can fit back in if they return to thier home country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkultra25 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 That looks huge compared to their current campus. They've gotta be either bursting at the seams now or expecting significant growth in the future. Or both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've gotta be either bursting at the seams now or expecting significant growth in the future. Or both. I bet they moved out there because it's close to BP's campus and the Energy Corridor. I would like to see a map of the Briish expats in Houston. I wonder if more private schools will sell their inner city plots and move out to the burbs.
