About the International School of Helsingborg
ISH was established in 1995 to answer a growing demand for a truly international education at the Primary and Secondary levels. Today, we have approximately 800 students between 3 and 19 years of age attending our school across all programmes. The school delivers the International Baccalaureate curriculums.

Our teachers come from more than 30 different countries all over the world, and the same goes for our students. English is the primary language at the school.

Our Preschool, Primary and Middle School programmes offer an alternative for international families who are residing in the Helsingborg region on a temporary basis, or for those moving overseas. Our Diploma Program is an excellent choice for all students, Swedish or international, looking to further their studies abroad or in Sweden once they graduate. The aim of our school is to develop internationally minded people who, recognizing their common humanity and shared guardianship of the planet, help to create a better and more peaceful world.

ISH prides itself on its international uniqueness and diversity of teaching staff and students. Each and every one of them bring something exciting and enriching to the school which creates an inspiring environment. IB diploma results are considerably higher than the IB world average on grades, points and diploma achievement.
