The Ecole des 4 vents opened its doors in September 2008 in Neder-Over-Heembeek. There was a pilot class with children between 12 and 14 years. A year later, a new school building is being opened. It belongs to the Property Management Agency of the City of Brussels. New classes are also being opened. In the construction they took into account the special needs of adolescents and young people with autism.

School for autistic youth

The Ecole des 4 vents receives youth from 12 to 18 years with a heavy level of autism (minimum entry level of 2nd primary school). The students are young people who have difficulties with learning and social skills. The Ecole des 4 vents is currently paid entirely with private money. The City of Brussels has offered financial assistance in a project for Equal Opportunities.
