Bohol Wisdom School (BWS), (Chinese: 保和智慧學校; pinyin: Bǎohé Zhìhuì Xuéxiào; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Pó͘-hô͘ Tì-hūi Ha̍k-hāu) is a non-stock, non-profit Filipino–Chinese educational institution registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 18, 1986.

About

BWS is a non-sectarian academic-oriented institution established, managed and operated by the elected members of the Board of Trustees, who are mostly from the Filipino-Chinese community in Bohol, the Philippines. It is co-educational and dedicated to the training of students in their preparation for life and service. The institution offers pre-school, grade school, junior and senior high school, and College of Education.

Its courses are approved and accredited by the Department of Education and Commission on Higher Education. In November 2008, the Bureau of Immigration granted BWS the authority to accept foreign students.

BWS respects the religious beliefs and practices of each individual and caters to all religious denominations in line with religion classes for Roman Catholics and Bible classes for the non-Catholic students.

As a school approved to offer Chinese language, BWS stresses the study of Chinese aimed at developing ability in speech, reading and writing. Consequently, in accordance with its mission to establish strong relationships between the Filipinos and the Chinese, BWS believes that in promoting friendly relations and fostering a spirit of mutual understanding between them, the students can be greatly benefited — affording them a better chance of becoming more effective and productive citizens.
