The British School in The Netherlands Reviews (13)

As a student who goes here. As IB students we are constantly not given opportunities and are taught at such a poor academic level and below what IB should be, our grades have dropped triple what they used to be and we feel constantly stressed. In comparison we see other IB schools including our sister school (SSV) and they are doing what you should properly be getting. The school is too small to fit the amount of students as well. I wish I switched and it’s not just me !!

Expected more. Some teachers are nice, but education is behind on national curriculum. Cannot recommend.

Very poor experience at this school. My children went to junior school, but after 3 poor years we left. The school is not selective, so there are MANY children with learning disabilities in the class (those who are not admitted to other international schools), and these children take up too much time and resources, to the detriment of the other children. Class sizes too big for a private school. Children have not learnt much. Academically very poor.

Although the BSN looks impeccable to an outsider, it's very different once you discover how it's run. Being the only school offering A Levels in the South Holland region, it holds an exclusive position. As a result, it can dictate how it is run without much risk of losing its students, which often leads to the students' needs being overlooked.
