What the stream is
A network of Dutch state secondary schools that operate an "international stream" alongside their Dutch-medium curriculum. The international stream teaches in English and delivers the IB MYP and Diploma, while sitting within a publicly funded school structure.
Where it sits
Notable schools include the International School of Amsterdam (state-supported), the International School of The Hague (state-supported), and several others across the Netherlands. The international stream is partly state-funded, meaning lower fees than fully private international schools.
Fees
The international stream at state-supported schools sits at roughly EUR 7,000 to 12,000 per year, against EUR 20,000 to 30,000 at fully private international schools.
Eligibility
Similar to DAIS at primary: families typically need expat residence status. Permanent residents may have access in some cases depending on the school.
Curriculum
IB MYP at Years 7 to 11, IB Diploma at Years 12 and 13. Some schools offer the British IGCSE and A-Level alongside the IB.
