Did you arrive at AMS on BA from London, and depart from AMS on BA to London? It is very unusual for this to require you to clear security, let alone immigration - and it would be even more unusual now that AMS has moved to centralised security from the previous gate security arrangement.
If you do this on a same aircraft back-to-back, usually you exit the aircraft and walk up the jetty to the terminal building to the exact spot at which, in 20 minutes time or so, you re-enter the jetty to re-board the aircraft.
