"'I appreciate that many of the teachers enjoy teaching us, and how they are interested in the subjects they are working with. It makes it easier as a student to put in a big effort: when you feel that dedication comes from both teachers and students'."

"I can't give feedback about just one teacher because every teacher is really good. I would say that every teacher that I have right now is really great and we learn so much from them and I like being in the lessons when they teach"

"De lär eleven mycket och eleven lär sig mycket under lektionen. The teachers teach the student a lot and the student learn a lot during the lessons. "

"'Alla lärare för ni gör ett bra jobb och att ni är snälla, lyssnar på oss barn och är glada det är svårt och säga att nån är bäst men för alla jag har lektion med passar mig bra.'"

"The students are challenged to work hard to reach their full potential and they are also offered study sessions after the school day to catch up on work. I can follow my child’s progress via updates on SchoolSoft which is great for my parental control. The school also works against bullying and takes action directly which feels safe. I also love the fact that we don’t have any discussions about ripped jeans at home anymore - due to the dress code in school. It is also great that there are no mobile phones during lessons!"

"For us, starting at IES has been an amazing experience. Our child is suddenly eager to go to school, takes responsibility for homework and has an easier time making friends and learning thanks to the calm environment in the classroom. Students are treated with respect and the lessons seem to trigger curiosity and the realization that it’s cool to know stuff."

"Education is very important to me so I really like coming to learn here. "
