About The British School of Amsterdam
The British School of Amsterdam (BSA) is a leading British-curriculum international school serving over 900 students from Reception through to Sixth Form. Situated in the heart of Amsterdam South, BSA has been educating the children of diplomats, corporate executives, and internationally mobile families for over three decades, building a strong reputation for academic rigour, pastoral care, and a warm, inclusive school community.
The school follows the National Curriculum of England and Wales, with students progressing through Key Stages 1 to 4 before undertaking GCSE examinations at age 16. At the Sixth Form level, BSA offers a broad selection of A-Level subjects, with strong results that have helped graduates gain places at leading universities across the United Kingdom, the United States, and continental Europe. The school's Oxbridge preparation programme is particularly well regarded, with dedicated workshops and one-to-one guidance for students targeting the UK's most selective universities.
BSA's teaching staff are predominantly British-trained, with a significant number holding postgraduate qualifications in their subject areas. The school maintains strong links with UK inspection bodies and undergoes regular external reviews to ensure that its curriculum delivery and assessment standards remain aligned with best practice in British independent education. Class sizes are intentionally kept small, with a maximum of 22 students per class at the primary level and 20 at secondary.
The school's facilities include a multi-sport hall, dedicated science and technology laboratories, a sixth form centre with independent study spaces, music practice rooms, and an art and ceramics studio. BSA places significant emphasis on extracurricular enrichment, offering over 40 after-school clubs and activities ranging from robotics and coding to drama, chess, and competitive sports. The school operates a minibus service for families in key residential areas of Amsterdam South and Amstelveen.
