As the only institution in the region authorized for the IB Primary Years (PYP) and Middle Years (MYP) programs, ABIS serves over 380 students from more than 50 different countries. The school is currently a candidate for the IB Diploma Programme (DP), planning to enroll its first cohort in 2026/27.

A unique feature of the school is its "Service as Action" program, which encourages students to apply their classroom learning to local and global community initiatives. Additionally, the school supports linguistic diversity through after-school mother-tongue classes in several languages. Its central location ensures excellent accessibility via the city’s public tram and bus networks for day students.
