De school ligt op een prachtige locatie van tien hectare, omgeven door bossen en meren, vlakbij het Koninklijk Museum voor Midden-Afrika in Tervuren (op 20 minuten rijden van het centrum van Brussel). De school is een gemengde, niet-selectieve dagschool voor leerlingen van 1 tot 18 jaar, met momenteel 1333 leerlingen. 30% van de leerlingen is Brits en er zijn meer dan 70 andere nationaliteiten vertegenwoordigd.

The British School of Brussels is made up of two schools: the Primary School - ages 1-11 and the Secondary School - ages 11-18.<\/p>\n
BSB provides a coherent and holistic curriculum built around our Guiding Statements and underpinned by the UNESCO 4 Pillars: Learning To Know; Learning To Do; Learning To Live Together; and Learning To Become. Tuition is mainly in English, although bilingual learning is also offered in French, along with support for other mother-tongue languages throughout the school.<\/p>\n
Students take the General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) and the International General Certificate of Secondary Education examinations (IGCSE) at age 16. Students can also take an International BTEC (a vocational qualification awarded by the Business and Technology Education Council in the UK) at Level 2 in Business. BSB students are entered for the IGCSE Science (Double Award) or IGCSE Science (Single Award) exam and are taught by subject specialists for each of the components.<\/p>\n
They then choose to study for the General Certificate of Education Advanced Level, the International Baccalaureate Diploma, or International BTEC Level 3. Some students combine A Levels with Level 3 International BTEC. Students study for these in \u201cPost16\u201d \u2013 the last two years of education at BSB.<\/p>\n
Most students studying A Level and\/or International BTEC will also complete an EPQ (Extended Project Qualification). The expectation is that students will begin three A Levels\/Level 3 International BTEC and complete them over two years. A small number will begin four. We do not offer AS Levels as a stand-alone qualification.<\/p>\n","extra_curricula_description":"
The Enrichment programme at BSB is an integral part of school life as part of a holistic curriculum. Students engage in a diverse range of activities including sport, drama and music, all supported by state-of-the-art facilities. Football, gymnastics and swimming are priority sports and full-time professional coaches support and guide students at different levels that range from participation for fun to high level competition both in Belgium and across Europe. Netball, tennis, golf and basketball are also played competitively in local leagues in Belgium and with other international schools. BSB is the only international school in Belgium to have its own 25m indoor swimming pool which forms part of an extensive sports complex that also includes a multi-purpose sports hall, specialist gymnastics space, dance studio, fitness room bouldering wall and 5G artificial pitches. Music and drama opportunities are exceptional across the age range and benefit from specialist rehearsal spaces and a fully functioning Theatre. Two full theatre productions are produced each year alongside a busy programme of music competitions and performances. Many students also take part in the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme at all levels. This is complemented by an extensive range of CAS activities and a wide variety of curricular and extra-curricular trips and residential visits. Activities such as THIMUN (The Hague Model United Nations), Belgian Special Olympics, Fair Trade and a range of environmental projects through our GIN (Global Issues Network) group enable BSB students to actively develop leadership skills and to engage actively, ethically and purposefully with the wider world.<\/p>\n","accommodation_description":"","day_school_min_yearly_fee_in_usd":"30157","cost_description_day_students":"
