The school is an all-through school catering for nursery, primary and secondary pupils, culminating in the awarding of the European Baccalaureate as its seconday leaving qualification. Pupils of the school are enrolled in either the Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Finnish, Swedish, Lithuanian, Estonian or Portuguese language sections. Founded in 1974 after the first enlargement of the European Communities, the European School, Brussels II prioritises, the children of EU staff for enrolment purposes.[3] Children of non-EU staff may enrol provided there is capacity. However, the School has been filled above its theoretical student capacity for multiple years. Enrolment in the four Brussels based European Schools is administered centrally.
