Happy to see all the children refreshed and back to school after the summerbreak.

We hope it will be a great year!

Nya köregler från 1 januari 2018

Internationella Engelska skolan har sedan en tid tillbaka uppmärksammat problem i sin interna kö. Köerna till vissa av våra skolor är idag så långa att barn som föds sent på året riskerar att inte ha någon chans till en plats i skolan även om de ställer sig i kö redan den första levnadsdagen.

Internationella Engelska skolan ser det som ett problem ur rättvisesynpunkt att barn missgynnas genom det faktum att de föds sent på året.

För att komma till rätta med detta problem inför därför Internationella Engelska skolan en begränsning gällande möjligheten att ställa sig i kö till våra skolor.

Från och med den 1 januari 2018 är det inte längre möjligt att ställa ett barn i kö till våra skolor under det kalenderår då barnet föds. I klartext innebär detta att barn som föds under 2018 inte kan ställa sig i kö till IES förrän under 2019. Kön för barn födda 2018 öppnar den 1 februari 2019.

För vidare information kring dessa nya regler hänvisas till respektive skola som hanterar sin egen kö.

New admission policy from January 1 2018

Internationella Engelska skolan has noticed an issue which has begun to affect our internal queuing system. The queues to our schools can be so long that a child born late in the year has no chance of receiving a place even if its parents register in the queue on the day the child is born.

Internationella Engelska skolan recognizes that this causes a problem from an equality perspective, as children born late in the year don´t have the same chance of obtaining a place in one of our schools.

In order to address this, Internationella Engelska skolan has decided to change the method of registering in the queue.

From January 1, 2018 it will no longer be possible to register in the queue the same calendar year that a child is born. This means that children born 2018 will not be able to register in the queue until 2019. The queue will be open from February 1, 2019 for children born during 2018.

For further information regarding these new rules, please contact the specific school you hope to register for.

Our Workshop

As the schoolstart approaches we thought we could gather all the parents and students who has accepted the challenge and said "YES!" to start at our school in August. The purpose was to give you an insight into how learning takes place and what a school day at IES could look like. We were very pleased to see you all participate and can't wait for the start in the Autumn!
