International School Wassenaar (ISW) is part of Rijnlands Lyceum Wassenaar (RLW) in the Netherlands. The school offers the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP) for students aged roughly 11 to 18. The RLW foundation, established in 1936, operates eight Dutch schools and collaborates with five abroad. In 2025 a new wing opened on the RLW campus to accommodate the International School. The campus lies in a leafy area near The Hague and Leiden, and it provides a warm, safe, supportive environment. Dutch is a subject within the IB curriculum, while all other subjects are taught in English. The school prepares students for university and higher vocational education. CAS is central to the DP, with activities such as the International Fair. ISW runs after-school clubs, a calendar of sports and trips, exchanges, a mentor programme, and a house system to foster leadership, wellbeing, and engagement globally today.
