Details / Notes

Student records from The Glasgow School of Art confirm that at least eight Belgian students attended the School between 1914 and 1916.

It is likely that these students were Belgian refugees, arriving in Britain when their country became occupied upon the outbreak of World War One. This information is based on a research project investigating the number of international students who attended the Glasgow School of Art between 1903 and 1949.

The student's names are listed below. Please get in touch if you have any further information.
