As educators in a rapidly evolving world, we always strive to keep informed of the best practices and foster a culture of continuous improvement. At Amity Amsterdam, we place great emphasis on our educators' professional development. We create a collaborative learning environment to promote growth, both for ourselves as educators and for our students.

In this blog post, we'll take a closer look at what our professional development sessions entail, their connection to learning principles, and our reflective practices.

In today's highly connected world, global learning is crucial in education. Learning today transcends borders, promoting understanding, respect, and collaboration among different cultures and countries. At Amity Amsterdam, this idea isn't just discussed – it's fully integrated into every aspect of our learning.

We incorporate the concept of global learning into all facets of our school, aiming not only to educate our students but also to nurture their ability to thrive in an international setting. Our interdisciplinary curriculum plays a vital role in ensuring that our students are ready to succeed and make a positive impact in a globalised society.

In this blog, we'll take a closer look at how our interdisciplinary curriculum develops our Senior School students' global competence.

Why is experiential learning key in shaping future-ready individuals? What kind of experiences can educational trips provide to students at a young age? Educational trips are great experiences for students of all ages. They provide students with the opportunity to step into a dynamic world of experiential learning, where they can interact with different environments and cultures. In this blog, we’ll focus on the multifaceted benefits of educational trips for our Early and Primary Years students (ages 3 to 11), from fostering cultural insights and scientific curiosity to promoting personal growth and social responsibility.

As parents, we are constantly thinking about the future of our children. Especially in the Netherlands, the education system offers many opportunities for our children after they graduate from school. From prestigious universities to internship programs and entrepreneurship opportunities; there's something for every interest and career path.

Amity Amsterdam’s Senior School curriculum recognises the importance of preparing our students for these different pathways. We are making sure that they are equipped with the necessary life skills and knowledge to succeed. In this blog, we take a closer look at how the curriculum pathways at Amity Amsterdam prepare our students for their transition to Post-Secondary Education.

In today's fast-paced world, getting our students to stay engaged and learn effectively can be quite a challenge. Our children are bombarded with many distractions every day, making it tough to ensure they truly absorb what they're taught. That's why, in the realm of education, we've come up with various methods to make learning last. One approach we're particularly passionate about is experiential learning.
