Internationella Engelska Skolan today announced that it will open two new schools. IES Kungsbacka and IES Vallentuna will bring the total number of IES schools in Sweden to 39.
Interest lists for both schools are open now and parents can apply for a place for their child.
Students from two Internationella Engelska Skolan schools have earned themselves a place in the final of a prestigious science, mathematics and technology contest.
When the national finals of Teknikåttan are held, later this month, both IES Gävle and IES Karlstad will be among the 13 schools hoping to win first place, having triumphed at their regional finals.
Students from six European countries came to Internationella Engelska Skolan Kista for a week of learning through technology.
IES Kista is part of the Erasmus STEAM Embassies project and welcomed teachers and children from Turkey, Ireland, Romania, Latvia and Italy, who are collaborating to share their technology curriculum as the students all learn together.
Students from IES schools have shown that they can command more than the English and Swedish languages.
During the Swedish final of the International Language Competition, students from IES Karlstad took the first prize in French for those under 16 while the team from IES Lund performed best in Spanish.

To speak English "well" is not enough in today's world, writes Ms Barbara Bergström, the American science teacher who founded the English School in 1993.
Young Swedes should acquire a total inner security when speaking English. Our schools offer the best environment for achieving this. An important part of our success is that we provide a secure environment for teaching and learning. Schools should have a calm environment where teachers can teach and students learn.
These founding ideas have laid a solid ground for success. Internationella Engelska Skolan is today the largest free school organization at the compulsory level ("Grundskolan") in Sweden. Some 25 600 students attend our 36 schools around the country.

Våra skolor är skolor där lärare kan undervisa och elever kan lära. Detta beror möjligtvis på den starka betoningen Internationella Engelska Skolan har på att skapa en trygg och lugn miljö vilket främjar undervisning och inlärning.
All vår personal jobbar för att skapa den bästa inlärningsmiljön i skolan, istället för att lägga tid och energi på att etablera förutsättningar för lärande kan de istället kliva in i sitt klassrum med vetskapen om att deras lektion kommer att börja i tid och fortlöpa smidigt utan avbrott.
