Introduction

Winford Bilingual Amsterdam is a private Dutch B3 school offering a 50/50 bilingual Dutch-English program for ages 4 to 12. The curriculum blends the Dutch National Curriculum, the UK National Curriculum, and the International Primary Curriculum, with all core subjects taught in both languages throughout the day. The school operates multi-age classrooms—Panda (4-6), Zebra (5.5-8), Giraffe (7-10), Eagle (10-12)—each with two native-speaking teachers and approximately 20 students, ensuring personalized attention. Pupils can follow either Dutch or International secondary education paths after age 9, depending on family choice. IPC themes run across subjects, linking learning in both languages. Facilities are central in Amsterdam's Museumplein, and field trips to libraries and Nemo Science Museum enrich IPC projects. Nutritious lunches are prepared in-house. After-school offerings include Mindful Minds: Sensory Lab, Textile Club, and The Crafty Creators Club. The school's bilingual approach supports fluency in both languages while preparing pupils for diverse futures globally.

Fees

Annual tuition at Winford Bilingual Primary School Amsterdam ranges from EUR 23,800 for 2026/27.

Application & Registration fees

- Application (registration) fee: €550 per child — one-time, non‑refundable; an invoice is issued to process the application.
- Enrolment fee: €1,000 per child — one-time, non‑refundable; payable after accepting the provisional offer and not deducted from tuition.

Tuition (annual and per term) — all primary year groups

- Annual tuition (Winford Bilingual Amsterdam): €23,800. This single annual tuition applies across the primary year groups (Panda, Zebra, Giraffe, Eagle).
- Per-term (three-term breakdown): dividing the annual tuition by three gives an equal-term amount of approximately €7,933.33 per term (annual ÷ 3).
- Instalment option effect (calculation): a three‑instalment payment option is offered but carries a 3% additional administration/interest charge. Applying 3% to the annual tuition (3% of €23,800 = €714) yields a total of €24,514; divided by three gives instalments of about €8,171.33 each. This per‑instalment figure is a calculated example based on the published 3% charge.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Single payment: full tuition payable in one instalment; the single‑payment deadline is before 1 August.
- Three instalments: due on 1 August, 15 November and 1 February. The three‑instalment option requires issuance of a direct debit and includes a 3% additional administration/interest charge.
- Pro‑rata charging: tuition is pro‑rated depending on the child's start date if enrolling during the school year. Instalment availability for mid‑year enrolment depends on the start date and may include additional administration/interest costs.

Curriculum
Winford Bilingual Amsterdam delivers a bilingual curriculum for children aged 4 to 12, with a Dutch curriculum stream for ages 9 to 12.

All core subjects are taught in Dutch and English throughout the school day. The program relies on two native-speaking teachers per classroom and small class sizes of around 20 students. IPC themes are integrated across subjects to connect learning in both languages, and pupils can transition to Dutch secondary education or International/English secondary education depending on pathway chosen.
