Our schools are a place where teachers can teach and students can learn.
In all our schools in Sweden, success rests on our people; their competence, determination and passion for education. We recruit the absolute best teachers both from Sweden and countries around the world where English is the native language. The international profile of our Swedish schools adds to the uplifting environment, where our staff can develop as teachers.
Our students learn “to command English”, not only to make themselves understood but to be able to explore and discuss issues in-depth. We offer roughly half of our teaching in English and half in Swedish using the Swedish curriculum. We believe in a safe and calm school environment. We know that every child can achieve success and our students learn to have high academic aspirations and work hard in order to realise their potential.
