The British School of Brussels (BSB), an English-language day school providing a British education for international students in Belgium, was founded in 1970 and occupies a site of about 15 acres surrounded by woodland near the Royal Museum of Central Africa in the town of Tervuren, east of Brussels. There are 1,230+ students within the age range of 1 to 18+ from over 65 nationalities currently enrolled. The current Principal is Brenda Despontin.
History
The British School of Brussels was founded in 1970, just as the United Kingdom was preparing to join the European Union. For its first few months it occupied temporary premises in Rue de la Loi / Wetstraat in Brussels. On 9th December of that year, HRH the Duke of Edinburgh officially opened the first building on the campus.
