In the May 2023 Session, we achieved an impressive graduation rate of 89%.
We offer Dutch as both a primary and secondary language within our curriculum. In the Dutch program, students also have the opportunity to study Spanish and German as additional language options. Within the international section of the school, students can choose to study either Dutch or any School Supported Self Taught (SSST) language. However, it's important to note that opting for an SSST language incurs additional costs.

We have established a Care Team; however, we do not currently offer specialized programs.
When enrolling in the international section of the school, students are required to have a B2 level of English proficiency. For those students who do not meet the B2 level proficiency in Dutch, we offer Dutch ab initio (Dutch for beginners) as part of the international curriculum.
