The school provide a comprehensive programme of individual language support for students to develop proficiency in English at all levels.  A supplemental fee is charged for this provision.

We have a well-equipped media centre.  Students develop an affinity with Information and Communications Technology from the age of 4.  The students also have guided access to the internet and are encouraged to use it as an efficient resource of learning and enquiry.

Students begin learning French in Pre-school and, as they move through the school, we offer a programme that is tailored to the level of proficiency of each student.

The school is proud of its qualified and widely experienced teaching staff, drawn from a range of national teaching systems.  Together, the teachers work to provide a positive climate of learning.  They are constantly engaged in a process of assessment and evaluation with each of the students, shared on a regular basis with their parents.

All students participate in a weekly programme of physical education, taking advantage of a local gymnasium.

Clubs form an important part of school life.  We offer a range of after-school activities.  Registration takes place on a termly basis.

BEPS is a member of the European Council of International Schools (www.ecis.org) and the Council of English Speaking Schools in the Benelux (CESSIB).  Through this network of schools and liaisons with the national schooling systems, we ensure that our students transfer successfully and are well prepared to face the challenges of a new school.

A garderie service runs on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 3.45pm to 6.00pm, on Wednesdays from 12.30 - 3pm. Teachers in the school run this for all children that attend BEPS.  It is organised by the Parent Teacher Association (PTA) and is run for the benefit of parents.

Children have access to the playground in good weather and are encouraged to complete their homework whilst they are attending the garderie.
