International community schools

International community schools provide a learning environment for students who want to learn about a specific culture or country. Others, however, place a lot of emphasis on connecting with Dutch society. This includes a curriculum consisting of Dutch language lessons and activities to promote integration. 

All schools listed below are happy to explain their education options in person, by phone or online – they recommend visiting where possible so that you can get a complete sense of their facilities and offerings. 

This non-profit organisation provides an inspiring learning environment for students in the local community to learn the Chinese language (and about Chinese culture). It caters for the needs of native Chinese-speaking students who temporarily live in the Netherlands, ensuring the continuity of their Chinese education. Non-Chinese students can also attend their Chinese language courses. 

Address: Prinses Irenestraat 21, 1077 WM Amsterdam 

Volunteers from local communities teach the Korean language and culture-related workshops such as Taekwondo and Korean cooking on Saturdays at the Korean School Amsterdam. Lessons are available for adults and children. 

Languages: Courses are primarily taught in English, although some teachers also speak Dutch.

Address: Keizer Karel College, Elegast 5, 1185 AA, Amstelveen.
