Ethos

We create high aspirations for future generations

Command of English

Children should learn to command both Swedish and English, not just know them, at an early age.
High academic expectations

Our conviction is that every child can achieve success irrespective of social back­ground.
Safe and Orderly Environment

Order, structure and safety are necessary prerequisites for learning.
