Admission
At AIS, we welcome families from all cultural, linguistic, and religious backgrounds. We celebrate diversity, foster a strong sense of identity and belonging, and value student voice as an essential part of our learning community.
Amstelland International School serves internationally mobile families residing temporarily in the Netherlands. As a Dutch government-recognised and subsidised international school, AIS complies with national regulations regarding admissions and eligibility for international education.
Eligibility for Admission
AIS welcomes:
- Children of internationally mobile families who will reside in the Netherlands for a limited period, typically between three and five years (Dutch and non-Dutch nationals).
- Children of Dutch families who have previously lived abroad or who are expected to move abroad within the next two years.
- Children who have received an international education and require a transition period before entering the Dutch education system.
Annual Re-registration
Re-registration Letter
After the spring break, parents will receive an annual re-registration letter to ascertain whether or not current students will be returning to the AIS for the next academic school year.
In order to secure a position within the school for the following academic school year, parents are required to fulfill the payment of the school fees in full before the beginning of the following academic school year. For more information, please read our school fee policy.

Student Support intakes
Identifying Student Support Needs
At AIS, we believe children do not have special needs; rather, they have special rights.
AIS reserves the right to deny applications that are deemed untruthful or incomplete.
If there is a question or concern, the Director and IB’er (Internal student support guide) will follow up with parents immediately after the Social Play Morning/Day.
For students entering the school with a diagnosis and IEP (Individual Learning Plan), the respective documents are required to be shared with the school.
