The Norwegian School in London was founded in 1982 in Wimbledon. It follows Norwegian curricula for pupils aged 6-16 and provides a Norwegian education in London. The school is a registered charity governed by a Board of Governors, which meets five times a year to set the long-term direction and ensure financial stewardship. The motto is Optimum Duo Mundi – The best from both worlds. The registered office is 28 Arterberry Road, SW20 8AH, London.
The school fosters a close-knit, international community with pupils from Norway, the rest of Scandinavia, the UK and beyond. London is used as a classroom, with trips to European cities and local sites, plus a range of cultural activities. Cross-curricular themes such as health and well-being, sustainability, and democracy and citizenship are integrated across the curriculum. The school community is supported by active parent involvement, including an engaged PTA.
FAU (Foreldrenes arbeidsutvalg) is the Parents' Working Committee and a major contributor and link between parents and the school. FAU helps organize social events and raises funds for special activities or equipment. FAU holds meetings every 6-8 weeks and is represented on the Board; Linda Wagner Cantrell is the current leader. FAU guidelines are published and a dedicated mail is mail.fau@norwegianschool.org.uk. FAU consists of a representative from each of the ten year groups.
