BFA was founded in 1956 by TeachBeyond, http://www.teachbeyond.org, formerly Janz Team Ministries. It is an international Christian school providing an English language education for grades 5-12. Grades 1-4 are part of a bilingual school, Christliche Schule Kandern, a partnership between BFA and Freie Evangelische Schule Lörrach.
