INTERNATIONELLA ENGELSKA SKOLAN
Internationella Engelska Skolan Skärholmen is an international school with a safe and calm environment where teachers can teach and students learn.
The queue to IES Skärholmen is closed for new registrations per 04/12/2023.
Internationella Engelska Skolan Skärholmen will be closing its current premises after the conclusion of the spring term in 2024. Consequently, no new student intake will occur for the school years 2024-2025 and beyond. The reason for this decision is the unavailability of a permanent building permit for the school. Other IES schools in the area include IES Årsta and IES Huddinge, where you can register through their respective website links.
Our queue runs on a first-come, first-served basis, in the interests of fairness for all. However, if your child has a sibling who currently attends the school, and if both of your children will be students at the school at the same time, then they may be entitled to advanced placement in the queue (syskonförtur). In this case please write the sibling’s Swedish ID number in the appropriate box when applying for any other children.
A number of IES schools are registered at Skolinspektionen for a possibility to dedicate a limited number of places in the queue for students who have been resident in the country for less than two years, in Swedish called "särskild kvot" which is regulated in förordning (2022:222) om särskild kvot i fristående skolor. These schools have the possibility to prioritize newly arrived students in the queue. Enrolling in the school depends on the available free spots in each year group. Please contact the school you are applying to for more information and to ask if they are registered for this possibility.
We begin their intake for the following academic year in the begining of the Spring term. The length of the process depends on how quickly we hear back from families who are offered places.
We understand that you would like to know as early as possible whether your child has a place. However, it is difficult to give a precise answer before the school completes the intake process. We offer places based on the date on which students joined the queue, but also consider whether they will have a sibling in the school at the same time (syskonförtur).
Each school has its own queue, and it is not possible to move between them. However, it is possible to join the queue for more than one school at the same time.
Email or call the school and let us know your queue ID number or personnummer and the information that you would like to change. You can find contact details for our schools under the contact section.
If you are offered a place and decline it, then you will lose your queue position and the place will be offered to the next student in line. If you later decide you would like a place then you will need to contact us either via phone or email.
