Faculty gossip:
· Teachers who stayed:
The ISSE is known for attracting a whole variety of teaching staff. Over the years it also became clear that there were those who saw the ISSE as a stopover on the route to bigger and better things, and those who stuck around for the long haul. Perhaps attracted by the small-scale nature of the school, and the vibrant yet friendly community, many put on hold (sometimes permanently) any aspirations to move on or up in the world. Among these long-termers are:
  • Mrs Anderson
  • Dorus Neutkens
  • Mrs Everid
  • Mr van Daal
  • Mrs de Rijk
  • Mrs Fell
  • Mr Hearn
  • Mrs Gruintjes
  • Mrs Timmers
  • Mr Zey
  • Mrs Klerks
  • Mr Mitchell

· The ones that didn't quite make it:
In the summer of 2001, after many, many years of loyal service to the ISSE community, Mrs Forest finally chose to move on. The International School in Rotterdam made her an offer that she could not refuse, and so no more will she be found teaching maths, editing yearbooks, or driving her mini around at the ISSE.

This summer, 2002, saw the departure of two more familiar faces from the ISSE teaching staff.
Mr Allan, who had been with the school for 10 years, has chosen to take up a position at the International school in Amsterdam. Mrs Christensen, who was our year mentor in IB, is also moving to sunnier pastures. She has (very wisely) accepted a position to teach in the Bahamas.
