Academie Tien (stylized as ACADEMİE TİEN) is a Dutch secondary school located in the city of Utrecht. The school officially opened in 2015 as Mavo Tien, which only offered education to students in the MAVO level.[4] On August 1, 2018, the school changed its name to Academie Tien and started enrolling students in the HAVO and VWO levels.[5]
In 2024, the school had 1075 students in total,[6] including students in the aforementioned MAVO, HAVO, and VWO levels.[7] The school is part of Nuovo, an organisation owning multiple schools in the Netherlands.
In late 2023, the school moved to a new location on the Berlijnplein.[8]
On 14 June 2024, police officers entered the school with weapons drawn on three students, one of which had carried a prop gun. The student was apprehended and punished for carrying the prop gun.[9]
The school does not grade students using numbers, which is unusual to Dutch secondary schools.[10]
