Admissions Process

The International School Delft exists to provide a quality international education in English for children in the Delft / The Hague area.

We welcome students from the international community of all nationalities, faiths, beliefs and cultures.

The general criteria for admission are:

  • The student has a non-Dutch nationality/is a foreign passport holder, and one of the parents/legal guardians is temporarily employed in The Netherlands;
  • Or the student has Dutch nationality and has lived and attended school abroad for at least two years;
  • Or the student has Dutch nationality and has a parent/legal guardian (with whom the student will be living) who will be stationed abroad within two years.

One other condition is that the school programme should be appropriate for the student’s needs and the student should be able to benefit from the programme. We can hold a place for your child for 3 months from the date of requested entry.

If you want to proceed with your application, submit an online application through OpenApply

You will need to submit the appropriate documentation, such as previous school records, to ensure that your application is complete and ready for review.

Applications will be assessed only once the Application Fee has been paid. The €250 fee is non-refundable and does not guarantee a space in school.

We will invite you for an interview to get to know the student and to assess the student’s needs. If deemed necessary, the student is asked to do placement test.

When it has been established by the Head of School that the programme is appropriate for the child’s needs and that a place is available, admission will be confirmed.
