== History ==
The school was named in memory of Charles Mackenzie, a prominent figure in the early history of Malawi. He joined David Livingstone on the Zambezi in 1861 as Bishop of Central Africa and Head of the Anglican Universities Mission. Mackenzie died of malaria and the mission collapsed almost before it began; yet he helped create a vanguard for the abolition of the slave trade by means of Livingstone’s much heralded “Commerce and Christianity.”
BMIS was originally founded in 1944 as The Lilongwe European School. Originally there were no more than a dozen pupils, with a single teacher, Miss Fairly, housed on the site of the Golf Club. In 1950, the school acquired its present location and experienced a period of growth. It became a boarding establishment throughout the then Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland. In 1959 the school changed its name to Bishop Mackenzie School (BMS). This reverted to a day school under the Nyasaland Government, and later provided boarding facilities again when the Government of Malawi placed BMS under the control of the Designated Schools Board (DSB) in 1977. In 1992 it expanded into secondary education with Form 1 (Year 7) and added to this annually. In 1995 the word “International” was added into the school’s name giving the now abbreviation BMIS.
In 1998 BMIS separated from the Designated Schools Board and established itself as a Trust under Malawi law. All parents are members of the Parents’ Association, which constitutes the membership of the Board of Trustees. BMIS became an International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme authorized school in 1997. The school expanded the IB programmes in 2006 introducing the Primary Years Programme (PYP), which was authorized in 2011. BMIS was fully authorized in 2013 to offer the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP) for secondary students in Year 7.
