The Federation of British International Schools in Asia (FOBISIA) is a federation of leading British international schools in Asia.
Founded in 1988, FOBISIA was first called the Federation of British International Schools in South East Asia (FOBISSEA),[1] and known for promoting a British-style education system in schools throughout Asia. FOBISIA hosts sporting, academic, drama, musical, art,[2] and debating competitions. A key aim of FOBISIA is also the opportunity for teachers from member schools to attend training workshops.[3] FOBISIA schools are mostly located in China, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam, where they have more than 5 member schools.[4]
