Additional Costs

We aim to keep additional costs to parents to a minimum. However, there are certain things that are not covered by the annual school fee:

Admission Deposit
At the time of application to the school, an admission deposit of €300 per family is required. This admission deposit is non-refundable and is required before your admission can be processed.

Excursions
Secondary students may have the opportunity to travel abroad with the ISB. The cost of international trips is not covered by the school fee, but we do our best to keep the cost of such trips to a minimum.

During the school year, primary children and secondary students go on a variety of educational excursions within the Netherlands.  The costs of such trips are included in the annual school fee, although there may be a small charge for lunch or refreshments.

Laptops
At secondary school, every student requires a laptop. The ISB works with iFactorsPro to offer on an Apple laptop at a reduced price, the full details of which are available once placement is confirmed. Please note: It is not essential for students to purchase an Apple laptop as most software used at the ISB is available for both Windows and Macs. However, should you have questions about whether your child's laptop is equipped with all necessary software, we can put you in touch with a member of our ICT staff during the admissions process. Primary children do not require a laptop as iPads are provided for the children’s use.

*The ISB is a member of the Dutch International Schools organisation, all of whom are partially funded by the Dutch government.  Since this funding doesn’t cover all costs, Dutch International Schools are allowed to charge school fees, within a pre-agreed range, with permission from the Dutch Ministry of Education.
