Dear Parents,
At the British School of Amsterdam, we aim to create a stimulating and caring environment which enables all individuals to realise their potential and by doing so, develop skills and confidence for a fulfilling and responsible life in a changing society.
The school prides itself in the high quality learning environments that it provides to all its pupils and the high academic success they achieve. All our teachers have qualified in the United Kingdom and have worked in schools in England for a minimum of two years. A high teacher: pupil ratio ensures every child receives individual attention and help. Committed classroom teaching alongside the provision for children with special educational needs and a programme for Gifted, Able and Talented pupils ensures that the social and educational needs of every pupil are met.
Every effort is made to ensure that your children settle quickly and comfortably into our school. The school has a non-selective admissions policy. Pupils are not required to sit entrance tests and examinations. We welcome children of all nationalities and children for whom English is an additional language. We accept pupils regardless of their intended length of stay, from those children of parents who are working in the Netherlands on a short term project to families who have chosen to relocate to the Netherlands on a more permanent basis. Children may enter at any point during the academic year.
