It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
St George's English School was founded in September 1990 by Anthony Barlow and Dr John Jackson, starting with 12 students in rented accommodation in Bonnevoie. In 1996 the school moved to Luxembourg-Cents and in 1997 the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester opened the Weimershof site. Between 1998 and 2000 the school grew to become St George's International School, and Princess Anne and Crown Princess Maria Theresa visited in 1999. The Hamm campus opened in 2008, followed by the Lentz building in 2009 and the Barthel building in 2011, with Luxembourgish taught to younger students starting in 2012. Today the school is an inclusive, welcoming international community of more than 850 students representing 70-plus nationalities at a purpose-built facility in Hamm; in May 2023 it hosted Luxembourg's coronation event for King Charles III and Queen Camilla.
The St George's community has grown immensely over the past three decades and has a warm, inviting atmosphere. Younger students describe their learning as happy, fantastic and magical, and parents speak of a welcoming community in which they have quickly felt at home. Current parents can access information about buses, canteen, extra-curricular activities, and more by logging into the Parent Portal.
The Friends of St George's is a group of parents and staff which organises regular social events, welcomes new families and fundraises for charities and initiatives such as the Art Scholarship Fund and the Lauren Patterson Memorial School in Uganda. The Friends are involved in the organisation of the Summer Fayre, termly family events, cultural visits and many other activities. New families who would like help settling into Luxembourg can contact the Friends Ambassadors, who are long-standing parents volunteering to support new arrivals, for advice on the local community and social activities within the school and beyond. Parents are encouraged to join Friends activities, including weekly walking and jogging groups.
St George's International School Luxembourg delivers the National Curriculum of England adapted for Luxembourg's international community, with EYFS, Primary and Secondary leading to iGCSEs, A Levels and BTECs. The school sits on a modern Hamm campus with the Hamilius, Lentz, Barthel and Zinnen buildings, and plans for the Elsy Jacobs Building to house a larger sports hall, changing rooms, offices and classrooms. The campus includes an auditorium, dedicated music rooms, a secondary library and science laboratories. The student body of over 850 pupils represents more than 70 nationalities, creating an inclusive, cosmopolitan learning environment. The school offers a wide range of clubs and activities, including debating, music ensembles and community service with Amnesty International and Eco-Agents. It participates in the Duke of Edinburgh Award through Merite Jeunesse. In 2023, St George's hosted Luxembourg's coronation event for King Charles III and Queen Camilla, underscoring its international connections across the international community.
