Our Team
Dedicated teachers who work with passion to help every child grow.
Teaching Team
At the Dutch School, our class teachers are the heart of the school. They are inspired, Dutch-speaking education professionals with a passion for learning and development. In the lower grades, they are carefully supported by our dedicated English-speaking classroom assistants. Together they create a safe, stimulating environment in which every child can grow.
Our team is our greatest strength: with their expertise, attention, and dedication, they bring out the best in your child's learning every day. We also work with specialized subject teachers for English, swimming, and sports, so every child can develop optimally in these areas as well. These subject teachers bring their passion and expertise to make our education even richer and more varied. For our Skills Clubs and after-school activities, we partner with trusted consultants and experienced experts who contribute with the same engagement to the broad development of our students.

The Whole Team
At the Dutch School, we are proud of our close-knit and engaged team. Together we make sure our school is a place where children feel safe, seen, and challenged.
Our team consists of much more than teachers alone. Every staff member contributes in their own way to the warm and well-organized school life. Our beautiful, green compound is carefully maintained by our gardeners, two of whom also dedicatedly drive the school bus to bring the children safely to and from school.
Our Finance & Operations Manager watches over the day-to-day running behind the scenes and is supported by our caretaker. Our cleaners ensure every day that the school stays clean, fresh, and welcoming.
We offer all our staff a safe, respectful working environment in which collaboration, engagement, and joy take center stage. Because only when our team feels good can we together create an optimal learning environment for every child.
