Amity International School Amsterdam

Empowering our students to thrive is at the core of everything we do. Amity International School Amsterdam is a family-oriented school, proud of the connections with our wider community and Amity Education Group. We are still growing and are ambitious to be a school at the forefront of impactful teaching and learning.

  

We are an IB World School for the Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme and the Diploma Programme. IB World Schools share a common philosophy- a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education- that we believe is important for our students.

 

Our curriculum is based on the principle that children’s best learning happens when they are engaged and emotionally involved in their education when it is meaningful to them and relates to the world around them. At Amity Amsterdam our students’ educational experiences will be individualised based on their skills, abilities, interests, needs and learning styles. A fundamental part of our curriculum is the opportunity to go out into the real world, to talk to experts and have a ‘hands on’ experience. This enables children to form a personal connection with their education and deepens their understanding, transforming learning into something vivid and real.

Surrounded by a nature reserve made of wetlands, and mixed temperate forest, yet closely connected to one of Europe’s most vibrant cities, the school provides the perfect balance of tranquillity and inspiration for students and staff alike.

Our campus is housed in a beautiful monumental (Rijksmonument) building, carefully restored and refitted to meet the needs of a modern international school while preserving its unique architectural character. Set beside De Braak, a protected nature reserve of temperate, deciduous woodland and wetlands, and bordering the Amsterdamse Bos, the school enjoys a rare and inspiring location that supports creativity, wellbeing, and a deep connection with the natural world.

Part of the global Amity Education Group, Amity Amsterdam offers the full International Baccalaureate continuum for students aged 3 to 18. Within our inclusive and international community, students are encouraged to pursue excellence across academics, the performing and creative arts, and sport, developing the confidence, curiosity, and resilience to thrive in an ever-changing world.

Our spacious, light-filled campus features modern classrooms, specialist music, art and drama studios, a well-resourced library, an indoor gymnasium, and extensive outdoor learning areas. The setting promotes creativity, collaboration, and wellbeing - values that define our approach to holistic education.

At Amity, ‘inspiring excellence’ means nurturing every form of talent; intellectual, creative, and physical. Our students learn not only to achieve highly, but to think deeply, act compassionately, and lead confidently. We invite you to join us as we continue to grow a school where innovation, inspiration, and internationalism come together and where both students and staff are empowered to reach their full potential.
