Education for a global future

International School Twente

International School Twente (IST) aims to inform companies in the EUREGIO about the importance of international education for the children of expats and thereby support international companies in attracting knowledge workers and professionals. IST provides high-quality education that appeals to expats.

Raising Awareness of International School Twente Enhances the Investment Climate in Twente

 

“The International School Twente is the only international school in the region,” explains Chris Bonke, Principal of the secondary branch of the International School Twente. “Additionally, we offer top-tier education. Our International Baccalaureate programme is highly regarded worldwide, and all universities globally accept students with this qualification. In fact, British and American universities often prefer students with our IB DP background over others.”

According to Bonke, by taking an active role in connecting with expats and understanding the needs of the region, including parts of Germany, IST is helping strengthen the EUREGIO’s investment climate. “We are the only international school in Twente, and the nearest German international school is far away. Having a school like ours provides a strong foundation for expats considering moving here to live and work. With increased visibility, we can certainly compete with international schools in areas like the Randstad.”
