Norden International School follows a Finnish Curriculum across two campuses, Helsinki (Malmi) and Brussels (Evere–Haren). It is a private international school serving pre‑school to Grade 9, with English as the language of instruction and Finnish language education as a secondary focus. The Primary Curriculum (Grades 1–6) covers Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies (history, geography, and the community), Arts & Crafts, and Physical Education. The Secondary Curriculum (Grades 7–9) provides more challenging core subjects, electives, and opportunities for independent learning and collaboration. In Brussels for 2026–27, English remains the language of instruction, with French and Flemish as additional languages; class sizes are small (10–12 students) and the program emphasizes personalized education, reading culture and libraries, performance tracking, arts, sports and handcrafts, and a technology‑enabled learning environment with parental involvement and well‑being support. Opened in 2013 as Kielo International School, Norden collaborates with the City of Helsinki Educational Department and operates in Helsinki and Brussels.
