In August 2004 we started our new bilingual/international department. In this department we will offer education for Dutch students who would like to follow bilingual VMBO education and for students in the international community living in and around Hilversum who are interested in a vocational training programme consisting of academic and practical lessons. Most of the subjects will be taught in English.

The programme In our programme communication is of central importance because we believe that having a good command of expression in all its forms is fundamental to learning. The assignments make students recognize relationships between school subjects and the world outside. We encourage students to become independent learners by making them develop various skills. The programme is designed for students who are not always motivated for the academic subjects. A lot of hands on activities and a significant number of practical subjects will challenge them to achieve the best possible result.
