About

International School Almere admits students aged 12 to 18 into our Secondary School, welcoming a diverse body of learners from around the world and various educational backgrounds. To cater to the wide range of abilities in the classroom, we maintain small class sizes, with a maximum of 24 students per class. This enables our teachers to better address individual learning needs and support student growth.

Our admissions policy places students according to their age to ensure appropriate academic and social development. You can read more about our Admissions process [here].
