Stockholm International School

Stockholm International School is a non-profit foundation guided by a volunteer Board of Trustees. It follows the International Baccalaureate (IB) philosophy, aiming to provide a personalised, purposeful, and responsive education that encourages independent thinking and global-mindedness. The school fosters a community where students are empowered to grow academically, socially, and globally.

The school offers the International Baccalaureate (IB) Continuum, providing a structured learning pathway from Early Years through to Grade 12. The curriculum is divided into Primary School (Early Years to Grade 5), Middle School (Grades 6-9), and Upper School (Grades 10-12), which includes the IB Diploma Programme. The academic programme emphasizes inquiry-based learning, critical thinking, and the integration of technology and AI.

Students in the Diploma Programme consistently achieve results that exceed national and global averages. Graduates are accepted into top universities worldwide, reflecting the school's focus on preparing students for academic and personal success beyond the classroom. The school emphasizes the development of resilient, reflective, and empathetic global citizens.

The school provides tailored learning and language support to meet the unique needs of its diverse student body, including English as an Additional Language (EAL) services. A dedicated team offers university and careers counselling to guide students through their future pathways. Additionally, the school prioritizes student health and well-being through integrated support systems.

Stockholm International School welcomes applications throughout the year for students aged 3 to 19. The admissions process considers students with an international connection, and the school provides specific age guidelines for grade placement. Prospective families are encouraged to enquire online, book a campus tour, or attend an open house event to learn more about the school's requirements and community.

The school operates on an academic year typically beginning in mid-August and concluding in mid-June. The calendar includes scheduled breaks such as a September break, an autumn break, a winter sports break, and a spring break, alongside various public holidays. Graduation ceremonies for the Upper School are held in early June.

The school operates two city-centre campuses located 750 metres apart in Stockholm. Facilities include flexible classrooms, modern science laboratories, creative arts spaces, and technology-rich learning commons designed for collaboration. The Norra Latin campus features a grand aula for performances and gatherings, while both sites provide canteens, drama studios, and outdoor areas for recreation and learning.

Students have access to a variety of enrichment opportunities, including sports, visual and performing arts, and after-school activities. The school incorporates time into the daily schedule for students to explore personal passions and develop new skills. Notable initiatives include the student-led Nepal Project and opportunities for students to serve as playleaders.
