THE IMPORTANCE OF A WARM WELCOME We know that moving to a new country and starting a new school is an exciting time but can be daunting. At the BSN we are experienced in helping children and their families to settle in as quickly as possible. We provide a warm welcome to all newcomers; not only in September but throughout the whole school year. Our Family Association Welcome Team and international groups play a vital role in this. As an 'Internationally British' school, we are lucky to have a hugely-diverse community of over 80+ nationalities. We welcome children and young people from all corners of the globe encouraging cultural connections both #80nationalities in and outside our classrooms.
OPPORTUNITIES BEYOND THE CLASSROOM The BSN offers a wide range of activities outside the classroom including sport, music, drama, debate and educational visits. There are opportunities for all of our students to live their dreams and prepare them for the future. Leadership and oracy skills are given a particular focus, with the Model United Nations, International Moot Court and a range of leadership opportunities which involve our students in the running of their campus.
TOP CLASS FACILITIES Our new state of the art campus at Leidschenveen will offer education for children from 3-18, as well as wrap-around after-school care.
DEVELOPING THE WHOLE CHILD The BSN’s ethos goes beyond ensuring that our students receive a rounded, results-focused education delivered in English - a British education creates open-minded, confident, creative and thoughtful individuals. We focus on the ‘whole child’ and consider their emotional, physical health and wellbeing a top priority. Our Character Profile is one of the ways in which we bring to life the characteristics of the BSN values that we expect in our students. For our Junior students, these are illustrated through eight colourful characters, such as Mr Perseverance and Mrs Collaboration. The Character Profile is embedded in everyday teaching and learning and plays a key role in school life.
