IB Curriculum International Schools in Stockholm, Sweden

Stockholm’s IB schools sit in a mixed system where fully private, fee-paying IB schools operate alongside municipal international streams that receive public funding; this means some IB places are low-cost or free for families registered in Sweden while independently run schools charge substantial tuition. The IB continuum (PYP, MYP, DP) is offered across primary, middle and upper years and is commonly taught in English, with several schools offering bilingual Swedish - English options or Swedish-language provision for national subjects. Fees vary widely depending on whether a school is voucher-funded or independent - published comparisons show everything from modest annual charges for municipal international streams to six-figure SEK tuition at private schools - and many schools also levy one-off enrollment or capital fees plus extras for trips, lunches and exams. Relocating families should check whether their child can be registered with a Swedish personal identity number to access municipal funding, expect application fees and waiting lists at popular schools, and confirm language support and whether the school offers the full IB continuum they want.
