International School Delft, The Netherlands, opens!
On 1 March 2014, the International School Delft (ISD) will open its doors. Initially, the school will move into an existing school building on Nassaulaan in Delft. Later, the ISD is expected to be permanently based on the TU Delft campus. The ISD’s mission is ‘Inspiring learning for bright futures’, a mission which is inspired by the city of Delft, home to a unique mix of science, art, history and technology.
The ISD focuses on children whose foreign parents live or work in the Netherlands, children of Dutch parents, insofar as these children have lived and been educated abroad, and children of Dutch parents who are temporarily living in the Netherlands and whose work will take them abroad again.
International curriculum
The programme provided by the ISD is geared to this specific target group. The ISD uses an internationally recognised curriculum in line with the programme offered in international schools abroad (primary and secondary education). The language used in school is English, with opportunities for the children to use their native language. Classes are given by English native speakers. The ISD is part of the Laurentius Stichting, which offers Catholic primary education in 24 schools in the Delft region.
International childcare
The ISD and the international childcare organisation True Colors Delft (Stichting Rijswijkse Kinderopvang) will be working closely together in order to guarantee a continuous learning line and one educational climate to children aged between 0 and 12.
