The school operates as a private B3 Dutch school offering the Dutch national curriculum in a bilingual environment. All subjects are taught in Dutch and English throughout the day, with the Dutch national curriculum aligned with the UK national curriculum and the IPC. Families can choose bilingual or Dutch-only classes after age 9 through customized language tracks, supported by two teachers per classroom (one native Dutch speaker and one native English speaker).
Winford Bilingual Amsterdam provides total immersion bilingual education for all students aged 4 to 12, with a Dutch curriculum stream for students aged 9 to 12. All core subjects are taught equally in Dutch and English, and the International Primary Curriculum (IPC) is taught in both languages. The program operates a dual-pathway model with an option to move to a Dutch-only curriculum from age 9. Each classroom has two qualified teachers—one English-speaking and one Dutch-speaking—who teach all subjects in both languages.
Pupils are completely immersed in Dutch and English throughout every school day and learn to switch easily between the two languages. Core subjects are taught in both languages, and IPC is delivered in both English and Dutch. The school offers a bilingual pathway with an option to switch to Dutch-only at age 9. The curriculum links the Dutch and UK curricula with the IPC to support language development.
