The British School of Amsterdam recognises that it is not only responsible for the academic progress and achievements of its pupils, but also for the development of each pupil as a whole. Therefore, the school offers a rich and varied programme of extra curricular activities to its pupils. Pupils from Year 4 and upwards attend an annual residential trip in the Netherlands and pupils in the Secondary school take part in modern foreign language trips. The work experience programme for pupils in Year 11 allows them to experience a work environment first hand and helps them to make future career choices.
