It was designed to serve up to 80 students, grades 1–6, in a one-story classroom building. The number of students increased and the school added a second floor to the building. The extra space added room for secondary classes, which also increased space in the office building, and later on, they added a sports field. The

(NICS) took over management of the school in 1995 and the first graduating senior class was in 2001. To cope with increasing numbers BAIS purchased a 3.5-hectare lot in

in 2007, a new development on the outskirts of Bandung. Construction on the classroom/office building was completed in July 2008 with classes starting in August for the 2008–2009 school year.
