British Curriculum International Schools in Amsterdam, Netherlands

British-curriculum international schools in Amsterdam generally follow the English National Curriculum adapted for an international context, with common external qualifications being IGCSE/GCSE at about age 16 and A-levels at 18. Instruction is primarily in English, but most schools provide English-as-an-additional-language support and regular Dutch lessons or extended Dutch programmes to help pupils settle into life in the Netherlands. Fees in Amsterdam vary widely: a city-wide typical published tuition is around €6,200 a year with many schools between roughly €4,700 and €18,400, while fully private British-type schools commonly sit in the mid-teens to mid-twenties of thousands of euros. Families should plan applications several months ahead of the school year (which starts in August/September), expect rolling admissions and waiting lists in popular year groups, and be prepared for interviews or assessments for older children.
