Looking forward, thinking ahead: the best that British international education has to offer. A thriving school community that educates, inspires and empowers everyone to be better than they can be.
The British School of Amsterdam caters for children aged 3 to 18 when they go through three school sections – primary school (3-6), primary school (6-11) and secondary school (11-18 years) – but it is one school , with one vision.

Be ambitious
Children need to be ambitious and reach for their dreams, and the British School of Amsterdam is actively seeking to ignite their curiosity and encourages them to tireless optimism. Many of their students continue to study at universities around the world, but success is not only measured by academic success.
Equally important is how your child develops in other ways, through life skills and the reach of other talents in the arts, sports and management – from musical theater to animation, ballet to basketball and is part of an eco-team or school board.
The goal is built
The school building is a monumental building with new goals and one of the best educational institutions in the city. There is a magnificent gym, beautiful playgrounds, a large theater, assembly halls and fully equipped science laboratories and music rooms.
Its unique design means that each section has its own wing and environment appropriate to the age and stage of study of the students. Classrooms are bright and spacious, there is room for concentration or collaboration, and many original features have been retained, so there is a great mix of old and new.
The best of both
The British School of Amsterdam offers a truly British education in an international setting with more than 40 different native languages and more than 75 different cultures. Pupils speak at home in many languages that are complementary to their curriculum, and their diversity is celebrated throughout the school.
In addition to shared cultures, students also get the best out of the national curriculum used in England, and local offerings such as initiatives such as Forest School. This combination means that students get the best of both.
Rich experience
The British School of Amsterdam has around 200 staff with a high proportion of teachers who have experience in the UK. Their team is really talented, and, unlike many international schools, a significant number of teachers have been with them for a long time.
