Stockholm International School

The school prioritizes happiness and wellbeing for each student and family. The SIS Parent Community supports wellbeing, and YANA (You Are Not Alone) is the Parent Community's flagship project that connects new SIS families with returning families to foster belonging and social-emotional support. Students benefit from a range of extracurricular activities and a welcoming, inclusive school culture that supports social and emotional growth.

The school welcomes students with diverse mild to moderate learning needs. A Special Support Programme provides individualized support through an Education Plan that is applied across all classes; referrals come from teachers or parents; specialists such as educational psychologists, psychologists, special education instructors, learning assistants, physiotherapists, and speech pathologists may be involved as needed.

English is the language of communication at SIS. A comprehensive English language support program runs across the Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme, and Diploma Programme. New students are assessed, and an Individual Plan is created; EAL lessons are provided (including four EAL lessons per week in the MYP) with targeted language acquisition support; English proficiency requirements are adjusted for progression to the Diploma Programme, and home-language maintenance is encouraged to support English learning.

The happiness and wellbeing of every student and family is vital. The SIS Parent Community supports wellbeing through initiatives like YANA (You Are Not Alone), buddy programs for newcomers, and a range of social activities that help students settle in and build friendships.

Stockholm International School is committed to data protection, safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and the whole school community. The school provides safeguarding and child-protection policies and procedures as part of its welfare framework.
