Overview

Charles Henry Brent, our school's founder, was born in Canada in 1862. After his ordination in the Anglican Church of Canada, he moved to the United States and in 1901 was elected Missionary Bishop of the Philippines for the Protestant Episcopal Church.

The Bishop founded Brent School Baguio in 1909. Originally a boarding school for the sons of American families stationed in the Philippines, more than one hundred years later the original Brent School in Baguio is currently a coâeducational boarding and day school with an international student population.

In 1984, the Board of Trustees of Brent School established Brent International School Manila in Pasig, Metro Manila. This second Brent school graduated its first twelve students in 1986 and assumed the style the traditions, as well as the educational system of its own mother school. In 1997 the three schools were incorporated separately, and each now has its own Board of Trustees under the Corporation. (Locate the tab âOther Brent Schoolsâ to see the websites for Baguio and Subic.)

It is an institution of the Philippine Episcopal Church, an autonomous Province of the Anglican Communion. The Philippine Government and also the Philippine Department of Education recognize the school. The governance of Brent International School Manila is by an appointed and self-perpetuating Board of Trustees, 50% of whom must be Anglicans / Episcopalians.
