Hi,
I am planning to move to Bruges around November and wonder if there are any French or English speaking schooling facilities. My daughter will be about two and a half year old. She has now theee active languages and English as a passive and I do not really want to add another language, especially knowing that we will be moving back to a French or English speaking environment after 4-5 years. Thanks,
Marika

There are no schools in French or English in West flanders or brugge.

Your nearest English school is private 40km away in gent. The nearest French school is 100km away in France or Brussels.

Hi there

did you read the above post about there being no public French schools within 100km of Brugge in Belgium?

All schools in Brugge are in Dutch. It is very easy to research them.
