The European School of Mol is the third of the European Schools. It is located in Mol, a municipality located in the Belgian province of Antwerp. The school was established in 1960 for the benefit of the children of the Central Bureau for Nuclear Measurements (now Institute for Reference Materials and Measurements), Euratom, Eurochemic, and the S.C.K-C.E.N (Nuclear Research Centre) personnel. However, since that date, the school has also welcomed children from many other European or overseas families, who live and work in the area. Every day, buses bring pupils from as far as Antwerp and Eindhoven, although there are boarding facilities in the neighborhood for students during the week.
KUT SCHOOL!
Primary School
In the Primary School, all pupils study their native language, mathematics, history, geography, science, art, music, religion or ethics, and sports. All these subjects are taught in their mother tongue. From the first year onwards, they also start learning one foreign language. The choice of this foreign language is important since it will later become the pupil's "working language", starting in the third year of Secondary School for the study of history, geography, and a number of other subjects. During what the school calls "European hours", children of different backgrounds and nationalities also join in various activities.
