If you successfully complete our bilingual HAVO and/or VWO, you can leave school with the following international diplomas:

1. First Certificate Examination
   At the end of the third year, you will conclude the lower school with the Cambridge English First exam, also known as FCE.

   Year 3 has already started with the English-language subject. Business Studies. In year 4 you will finish this with the internationally recognised diploma at the end of the school year.
3. International Baccalaureate programme (IB)
