Hi everybody,
I've just arrived in Brussels this month and I'll stay there for 3 years. We live in Uccle. My son is 15 years old and I'd like to find a good highschool, taught in English for him. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,

English is not a Belgian national language. You will have to put him in a private paying school. For example :
- https://www.eursc.eu/en

Or, you're really thinking about an open mind about the world. And you have it studied in a school speaking French or speaking Flemish. It will be difficult at first but it will open up additional horizons for his future professional life.

European schools are not not really private fee paying and the English sections in Brussels only for category 1 children.

A search of previous posts will bring you to the full list of private schools in Belgium.
