International School of Boden

International School of Boden

Boden is starting an international school due to the fact we are expanding quickly, especially because of the development of the H2 Green Steel Industry.

The International School of Boden, located just south of the arctic circle, educates students from the ages of 6 to 19. Our foundation is built on the need for an international community in the north of Sweden. With the growing number of international families moving to Boden, we have decided to match this demand with the opening of an International Education Program with internationally trained and experienced teachers to provide students with a high-quality worldwide curriculum that is transferable and recognized universally.

International School of Boden is a candidate school* for the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme, Middle Years Programme, Primary years programme and is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. IB World Schools share a common philosophy—a commitment to improve the teaching and learning of a diverse and inclusive community of students by delivering challenging, high quality programmes of international education that share a powerful vision.**

*Only schools authorized by the International Baccalaureate can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme or the IB Career-related Certificate (IBCC). Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted. For further information about the IB and its programmes, visit www.ibo.org
