Welcome to IES Norrtälje

Internationella Engelska Skolan Norrtälje is an F-9 school for about 600 students, including fritids provision. During our first year of teaching in 2024-25 we will take in students in grades F-7, before the school grows over the next two years.

The school is newly built with modern facilities, including an on-site kitchen to produce freshly prepared food, a large well-designed schoolyard and a sports hall.

NUMBER OF STUDENTS: 600

SCHOOL ESTABLISHED: 2024

YEAR GROUPS: F-9

We believe every child can succeed, whatever their background and so we support every student to reach their full potential.

We believe that by showing basic respect for each other and ourselves, we lay the foundation for safe and stimulating schooling, and prepare students for higher education, working life and society.

We teach using the Swedish national curriculum and up to half the education in our school is delivered through the English language by qualified teachers from English-speaking countries including Canada, the USA, and the UK.

"The thing that differentiates this school is the respect between the teachers and students, and that there are high demands and expectations on all students. Teachers are allowed to focus on their task of teaching and there are other functions to help the students socially. Having experienced leaders that really support their staff is also good. We teachers receive a lot of positive feedback from leadership. It helps in generating a good atmosphere."

Helena Arango

Teacher Swedish and SO, IES Kista

"I like it so much that I’ve been here for 17 years now, and I feel no need to move. I teach Swedish for 50 per cent of my time nowadays and work as a mentor to new teachers for the rest of the time. It is important to convey our fundamental principles so that all lessons follow the same structure. This includes things like students having to stand two-by-two outside the classroom and that lessons must be well planned with defined goals for the lesson that are written up on the board."
