Oh boy, where do I begin?

A school is only as good as its teachers are happy, and BIS Canada is a school where the vast majority of teachers are not happy with the owner or the administration... 

On April 14, 2017, the BIS Canada owner fired half of his staff without warning and purely on a whim... 

Four days later, on April 18, 2017, he changed his mind and said that he wouldn’t be letting anyone go from BIS Canada. It didn’t even matter that teachers’ jobs were supposedly safe because he had broken their spirits and shown them that they are replaceable tools. He broke their trust...

BIS Canada is housed on the third, fourth and fifth floors of a nice looking former YMCA building. The school illegally uses certain spaces on the second, fourth and fifth floors that are not properly zone by the government to be used by them and have therefore run afoul of the Gyeonggi Ministry of Education several times... 

BIS Canada has one of the lowest starting salaries in Korean international schools... 

School supplies are so few at BIS Canada, that they are kept in the staff lounge against the wall beside where the teachers have lunch...

The BIS in BIS Canada stands for….BIS. Yep, that’s right, BIS stands for nothing. Back in the day when this school started, BIS stood for Bundang International School. Since the school does not have the right to call itself a school (because to be a real international school you need to meet that 75% foreign student passport quota), the name Bundang International School ceased to exist. Instead of giving the school a proper name, the owner simply kept it as BIS, which literally no longer stands for anything. No meaning, no mission statement, no nothing...
