Institut Sankt Joseph Copenhagen is a private Catholic school in Copenhagen offering a bespoke bilingual curriculum for ages 6 to 16. The school combines Danish and Cambridge International education within a single framework. In Primary, Cambridge is taught alongside Danish curriculum; about half of lessons are in Danish (dansk fællesmål) and half in English (Cambridge goals), while Secondary follows both Danish and Cambridge models. The academic structure includes Lower Primary (Kindergarten–Year 3), Upper Primary (Year 4–6) and Secondary (Year 7–10), totaling 29 classes. A core feature is the International Bilingual Department opened in 2014, designed to prepare students to thrive in Denmark and abroad. Facilities include a sports center, a gymnasium and a playground, with easy access to Østre anlæg, Kastellet and Fælledparken. The school offers robust after-school care (SFO Liljen), a dedicated music program through the ISJ Music School, field trips and service opportunities for students' academic growth worldwide.
