About us

A Swedish school with an international outlook

Small class sizes, an open multicultural and multilingual atmosphere, strong academic results and an appreciation for the wider world — just some of the aspects of life at Europaskolan.

In short

Students at work during a lesson at Europaskolan

Europaskolan combines the broad learning of the International Baccalaureate with the Swedish national curriculum. We welcome students from a wide variety of backgrounds and provide them with a fully rounded education in a challenging and inspiring environment, for those who are independently able as well as those who need more support.

  • Approximately 400 students at the Södermalm campus, with a strict limit of 24 students per class.
  • Two languages of instruction: Swedish and English.
  • A fee free school, with places offered through our queue system.
  • School hours Monday to Friday, 8:30–15:00.

Communication and community

We encourage regular communication between families and teaching staff, primarily through day-to-day contact and email. Every student is assigned a mentor they can turn to with questions about their studies or their personal lives, and students help shape daily life at school through the Student Council. Regular parent meetings give families and staff a shared forum for discussing student development.

While students are given the freedom to learn and explore independently, we also believe in discipline and mutual respect, and the school maintains an active anti-bullying policy. Students are encouraged to take part in community projects and volunteer work, including recent initiatives supporting a school in Kenya and work with the elderly in India.
