International School of Amsterdam (ISA) — Amsterdam, Netherlands
School type: IB Continuum School · IB Programmes: PYP, MYP, DP · Live coaching in CET (Central Europe)
International School of Amsterdam (ISA) was founded in 1964 in Amstelveen, south of Amsterdam. ISA enrols approximately 1,200 students from 50+ countries and is authorised for the full IB Continuum (PYP, MYP, DP). The school's Amstelveen campus, adjacent to the Amsterdamse Bos, includes modern science laboratories.
ISA offers IB Biology at both HL and SL. The school serves Amsterdam's tech, finance, and creative-industry expat communities (Booking.com, Adyen, ING, Philips alumni). ISA Biology teachers have historically emphasised data analysis and experimental design, preparing students well for the IA and Paper 2 data-response questions.
ISA graduates matriculate to Dutch, UK, US, and European universities. The University of Amsterdam (UvA) and Vrije Universiteit (VU) Medical Centres are the primary local medical-school targets. ISA's IB Diploma average has been consistently strong.
Sourced from publicly available rankings, the school's own annual diploma results communications, and the IB Organization's programme authorisations.
ISA graduates approximately 100 IB Diploma candidates per year. Biology HL is a popular Group 4 choice. The school's data-analysis emphasis in sciences prepares students well for the IB's practical-assessment strand.
ISA reports placements at UvA, VU Amsterdam, Leiden, UK Russell Group (Imperial, UCL, King's), and US top-50 universities. Dutch medical-school applications are a growing pathway — UvA AMC and VU Medical Centre accept IB Biology HL directly.
We sync with ISA's IB DP calendar (late August start, mock exams February, May finals). ISA's strong data-analysis culture means our tutoring can focus more on content depth and exam technique, building on the school's existing experimental-skills foundation.

Same faculty · same school context
Cerebrum Biology Academy is biology-only across NEET, Biology Olympiads (NSEB / INBO / IBO + USABO / BBO), IB Biology, AP Biology, and board Biology (CBSE, ICSE, IGCSE, A-Level). The ISA context stays attached when you switch from IB to NEET or Olympiad enquiries — your counsellor knows where your child studies.
IB + NEET integrated track for India-returning families — keep AIIMS / state medical via NEET as an option even while based at ISA.
IBO and country-level olympiads (USABO / BBO / equivalents). The IB HL syllabus overlaps meaningfully with the Olympiad core.
Beyond IB: CBSE / ICSE / IGCSE / A-Level / AP Biology, exam-only crash courses, year-round Biology support. Useful for ISA families with siblings on different curricula or students adding AP Bio alongside IB.
