The Swedish School in Marbella: The Swedish School with room for all

With over 20 years of teaching excellence, the Swedish School in Marbella has expanded its popular offering with a brand-new international curriculum. A school within a school, this new programme is approved by Cambridge International Education and is open to both Swedish and international children as a means to grow and excel.

The Swedish School, which has been a cornerstone for Swedish-speaking children on Costa del Sol in Spain for over two decades, is widely recognised for its high-quality education. Starting off with only a handful of students, this thriving school is the educational home to over 200 children whose families live and work in the Marbella area. In line with this growth, the new international curriculum has been launched as a bridge for secondary students to continue their studies in English within a vibrant Swedish environment.

Having closed this gap in the market, CEO Isabel Saunders-Lagrillière explains; “parents value a Swedish-taught curriculum when their children are young, but this changes as the teenage years hit. Generally, the parents then want more structure to help prepare their children for the next step in life, such as studying in the EU, which is why an international programme became important to us.”

As with the school’s other offerings, international classes, which are kept small, are run by professional and committed staff within a positive, warm and supportive environment. And although the new programme runs classes in English, the team will continue to emphasise Swedish language and culture while promoting global awareness.

“Located in Marbella, our school offers a unique environment with great opportunities for cultural and social exchange,” says Saunders-Lagrillière. “We’re thrilled to have finally launched our international leg and can’t wait to see what the future holds.”

The new international programme offers:
● Globally recognised education: Equip children with the skills and knowledge to excel in our interconnected world.
● Native English-speaking team: Benefit from the expertise and support of dedicated, native-speaking educators.
● Small classes: Enjoy personalised attention and a tailored learning experience to each student’s needs.
● Swedish community: Allow kids to be immersed in a supportive and culturally enriching setting.
● Flexibility: Students have the option to study Swedish as an additional subject, obtaining grades to study at a Swedish high school too.
● Wellbeing and safety: These pillars are the school’s top priorities, ensuring a nurturing and secure environment.
