Apply in just three steps:

1. Click Join the Queue.
2. Choose the school you want to apply for (Every school has its own queue. You can place your child in the queue from 1 February the year after they were born).
3. Fill in the form including your details and those of your child so that we can stay in touch and let you know if a place becomes available.

Sadly, our school is not an open space and we do not allow people to look around the school without contacting a member of staff first and having their approval.  It is crucial that we know exactly who is in the school building and for what reason due to safeguarding. If people turn up to the school as they please, then teaching can be disrupted and we are unable to keep our students safe. We suggest that you attend our Open House evenings and parent meetings to have the opportunity to look around the school.

Although, we do have a digital tour of the school that you can watch to become familiar with the school site and school life. You can click here to watch the Digital Tour via our website or click here to watch the video on YouTube. You should also follow our social media channels to keep up to date with what is going on at the school.

We understand that you would like to know as early as possible whether your child has a place. Unfortunately, we are unable to share the queue number with students or parents as it is difficult to give a precise answer before the school completes its intake process.  We offer places based on the date on which students joined the queue, but also consider whether they will have a sibling in the school at the same time (syskonförtur). If a spot does open up and you are next in line, we will contact you as soon as possible to offer you a place.

Students are encouraged to come to school and be prepared for all of their classes.  All students are given an Internationella Engelska Skolan branded backpack and pencil case - these should be clearly named and looked after to ensure that they can be used throughout their time at IES. Students will be provided with basic stationery at school but if students wish to come with their own, they can.  

All students are given a fruit snack and a school lunch every day and we have a no additional food on school site policy.  All students are encouraged to bring a clearly named water bottle to school with them. Fritids students can eat breakfast and mellis every day (contact Fritids for more information.) If your child has additional dietary requirements contact the school nurse.

On days that students have PE, they should bring appropriate clothing with them. 

F-5 students are expected to go outside during their break times and it is therefore very important that students have suitable outdoor clothing with them.  All outdoor clothing should be clearly named.
