Director’s Welcome & Virtual Tour
A thriving international learning community
Our holistic philosophy emphasises both the intellectual and personal development of our students.
Welcome to the website of the British International School of Stockholm.
With over 40 years of experience in delivering high-quality British international education, BISS is a place where students from around the world, aged 3 to 18, come together to learn, grow, and thrive. Nestled in the green suburb of Djursholm, just north of Stockholm, we’re proud to be a school rooted in strong relationships, high expectations, and a commitment to personal growth.
As Director, I’m proud to lead a school where curiosity, resilience, and respect guide us every day. These values are lived out in our classrooms, on the sports field, through service initiatives, performances, and student-led projects.
Learning is at the heart of everything we do. We offer a carefully designed, internationally recognised curriculum that moves through the Cambridge IGCSEs and culminates in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. Our graduates go on to top universities across the globe — but just as importantly, they leave BISS as confident, compassionate individuals ready to make a difference.
Wellbeing and learning go hand in hand. We know that students thrive when they feel safe, supported, and inspired — and that’s exactly the environment we strive to create every day. Our teachers care deeply, our community is close-knit, and our students feel seen and valued.
We promote skills such as collaboration, critical thinking, compassion and creativity
We place both learning and well-being at the heart of everything
We’re proud to be fully accredited through COBIS (Council of British International Schools), with 23 commendations affirming the quality, culture, and care that define BISS. This recognition inspires our ongoing commitment to excellence — because we believe in being better, not because we have to, but because we want to be.
If you are looking for a school that balances academic ambition with personal wellbeing, where every child is known and encouraged to flourish — I warmly invite you to explore more. Browse our website, watch our videos, or get in touch with us directly. We’d be delighted to welcome you.
Warm regards,
Ms. Corina Rader
Director
British International School of Stockholm
