An international English-Speaking school in the heart of Brussels

Welcome from the Headteacher

To experience BJAB is to understand how wonderfully creative, energetic, kind and thoughtful our pupils are. Children come to BJAB from around the world and always show how, with expert teaching and support, they surpass expectations. I’m always delighted to show visitors, parents and alumni how the school achieves the highest standards within a caring and family atmosphere.

The British Junior Academy of Brussels

Loving life and learning.

Within a caring and structured environment, our children are taught the National Curriculum of England by a creative teaching staff who encourage them to love life and learning. Their parents’ participation adds to the strong sense of community and high standards of behaviour and academic achievement.

Welcome to BJAB, where children reach their potential through high expectations and a nurturing environment.

A small, family-like school.

Located in the centre of Brussels, BJAB is a small, friendly school of approximately 170 pupils. The ratio of teachers to pupils is a generous 1 to 8 in Kindergarten and 1 to 16 in the remainder of the school.

It’s official: BJAB achieves Excellence

The Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) rates BJAB as

“Excellent” for quality of the pupil’s learning and achievement, and

“Excellent” for quality of the pupil’s personal development.

Most of our pupils are achieving attainment scores above their age-related expectation. Pupils make progress in all areas of the curriculum.
