British Junior Academy of Brussels (BJAB) is a centrally located international school in Etterbeek, providing a tailored British education from Early Years through to the Senior years. Following the National Curriculum for England, the school is currently expanding its secondary offering to include Year 12 and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) by September 2026. Known for its small class ratios and a "vertical tutoring" system in the Senior School, BJAB fosters a supportive community where students receive individual attention from specialist teachers. The curriculum includes Cambridge IGCSEs for Year 10 and 11, with a strong emphasis on both English and French proficiency, including preparation for local Belgian exams like the CEB. As a member of the Round Square network, the school prioritizes global citizenship and character development. Students benefit from diverse co-curricular activities ranging from the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award to student-led drama productions and specialized annual STEAM fairs.
