Malmö International School (MIS) is funded by the City of Malmö and offers the IB continuum for ages 3–16. MIS provides Early Years (EYP), Primary Years (PYP) and Middle Years (MYP). EYP is integrated in the PYP for 3–5 year-olds, with a four-hour day and a play-based, inquiry-led approach. The PYP covers ages 3–12 under six themes—Language, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, The Arts, and Personal, Social and Physical Education—and culminates in the PYP Exhibition. The MYP serves ages 12–16 with eight subject groups and criterion-related assessment.

In 2024 MIS moved to a new Hyllie building funded by Malmö. Facilities include a library, a Student Welfare Team, and meals with organic options.
