Questions about how to apply, what happens next, and how we conduct our intake

The admission period for Internationella Engelska Skolan Upplands Väsby has begun.

The admissions period for the 2026 academic year is now open!
This means that the first offers of placement will soon be sent out.

Placement offers are sent digitally to all registered guardians via SchoolSoft, our platform for queue management and admissions.

If you receive a placement offer, please log in using BankID via the school’s website under Queue Login to manage your offered place. Please note that all guardians must confirm the offer for the place to be valid.

If you do not have a Swedish BankID, please get in touch with the school directly

We encourage all guardians who receive an offer to respond promptly, allowing us to manage queue placements accordingly.

To Queue Login (SchoolSoft)

Places are allocated in order of queue position and, where applicable, sibling priority. The earlier you place your child in the queue, the greater the chance of being offered a place.

Admissions continue until all places are filled, after which new places may be offered subject to availability.

If you have not received an offer for the autumn term 2026 but wish to remain in the queue, no action is needed, your queue position will automatically be kept.

If your child is not yet in our queue, there is still time to apply to IES Upplands Väsby via the link below.
Remember that you can also add siblings, as sibling priority may apply.

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.
There is no exam or test for your child to pass if they would like to learn at an IES school. Places are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
Because of the way that we are funded we are only able to offer education to students registered as living in Sweden. You can apply for a place for any student who has a Swedish national identity number (personnummer), even if they have not yet moved back to Sweden. If you do not yet have a Swedish national identity number but are moving to Sweden and would still like to apply, please contact the school in question for advice.
On our website you can find all the schools we run, or those we have committed to open. If you are interested in a school we have not yet opened, please email info@engelska.se and ask to have your email address added to the list of people who would like to be informed if we announce a school in that location in the future.
Most of our schools begin their intake for the following academic year in the autumn term. The length of the process depends on how quickly we hear back from families who are offered places.
We understand that you would like to know as early as possible whether your child has a place. However, it is difficult to give a precise answer before the school completes the 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).
Each school has its own queue, and it is not possible to move between them. However, it is possible to join the queue for more than one school at the same time.
Write to the school in question and let them know your queue ID number or personnummer and the information that you would like to change. You can find contact details for our schools here.
If you are offered a place and decline it, then you will lose your queue position and the place will be offered to the next student in line. If you later decide you would like a place then you will need to apply again.

Our queue runs on a first-come, first-served basis, in the interests of fairness for all. However, if your child has a sibling who currently attends the school, and if both of your children will be students at the school at the same time, then they may be entitled to advanced placement in the queue (syskonförtur). In this case please write the sibling’s Swedish ID number in the appropriate box when applying for any other children.


A number of IES schools are registered at Skolinspektionen for a possibility to dedicate a limited number of places in the queue for students who have been resident in the country for less than two years, in Swedish called "särskild kvot" which is regulated in förordning (2022:222) om särskild kvot i fristående skolor. These schools have the possibility to prioritize newly arrived students in the queue. Enrolling in the school depends on the available free spots in each year group. Please contact the school you are applying to for more information and to ask if they are registered for this possibility.
