Stockholm’s international schools (age 5 & up)

When moving to a foreign country with kids, choosing which school they go to is a major consideration. International schools are often a great choice for parents who plan on staying for only a short term, for parents with specific language preferences or for parents who would like a different approach from the normal Swedish schooling system. These international schools have the ability to accommodate a melting pot of children who will attend from a few months up to a number of years. The list of Stockholm international schools is below.

    Hello,

    I am interested in teaching modern dance to children from ages 3 onwards as an extra curricular activity. I taught modern dance in Rome, Italy with my mother and also in Washington, DC.

    I came to Sweden in 2008 with my family.

    The classes will be in English to enhance the children’s english knowledge.

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Thank you in advance.

    Here is my review of Futuraskolan International School of Stockholm-

    We have been with the school this past year; this being their first year of operation. We moved from one of the other schools listed above and our review of the school can be summed up as-

    YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!

    The reasons for these comments-

    1. the education level is mediocre-the kids are just not challenged enough where you get homework to match your competence.

    2. There is way too much time spent in music, gym, playtime, or reading quietly at your desk with no interaction with the teacher.

    3. All children from 2nd grade on wards are being taught Adele’s song-“rolling in the deep” for a chorus performance and the music teacher finds nothing wrong with the lyrics.

    4. Foul language is staple- “F***” bombs are rampant.

    5. Kids get pummeled by bullies and the teacher does not even care to report the incidence to the parents of the victim.

    6. No grievances are ever addressed seriously. The principal is just lackadaisical if not running between campuses to cover vacancies in other schools.

    7. There are 25 students in each class and no assistant dedicated to the classes. When the teacher is absent the vacancy is not filled by a substitute teacher but by a fritids staff- party time for the kids until the day their teacher comes back-mercifully the teacher hasn’t been away for extended breaks.

    We have decided to go the extra mile and shell out more money for one of the other options.

    We are Swedish citizen living abroad. My daughter goes to french school in Montreal. English would be easier for her. She goes to grade 7 now.

    We are planning to move back to Sweden. My daughter speak no Swedish. Aren’t schools free in Sweden? If not what are the expenses.

    Reading the comments above I am really concerned that the quality of the international school in Sweden does not match the native schools. Appreciate any feedback.

  • Sandy 20 Jan 2013

    Tessa, so what school did you end up putting your children in? And has anyone had experience with ISSR (International School of the Stockholm Region)? We will be moving this summer with my sons who are currently in 3rd and 5th grade in the States.

  • Sophie Bailey 20 Jan 2013

    I am too an English primary school teacher about to move to Stockholm. Did you find any employment?

  • joan wohlner 24 Jan 2013

    ISSR is the only one all in English that doesnt charge. It is run by the commune and brand new for the younger children. My grandchildren go to their IB gymnasium and that has been good.

    But remember that ISS charges hefty fees and thus has more money/child to spend. No school can compare to that if you are willing to pay.

    • Sandy 5 Feb 2013

      I didn’t understand what you meant by ‘hefty fees’ at ISSR. It is one of 2 schools that we are considering for my sons.

  • Angelika 21 Mar 2013

    You need to add ISSR (International School of the Stockholm Region) to your list above.

    Sandy: ISS and ISSR are two different schools. ISS chargers fees. ISSR is a free, state-run international school with the IB curriculum (age 5-high school).

  • Lisa 3 Oct 2013

    @Teresa-I wish I had found your review earlier.Our experince was bad enough.

    Its an awful school that cheats under the International word.The teachers are not qualified and are always dishing out only printouts from the net. Teaching assistants teach most of the time .I wonder how Skolverket and the inspection guys did not figure out this.The principal is not bothered with a basic necessity as road safety and even after 3 years there was not a single sign of a School Zone around this school. It clearly shows how effektive this principal is.

  • Viswanathan 11 Dec 2015

    Hi All,
    Can anybody please confirm whether ISSR expects that the child needs to have a person number when she starts attending classes? I have a person number but my daughter and wife do not have a person number. Will this affect her chances of joining ISSR? Can you please let me know? Thanks.

    Best Regards
