Introduction

Welcome to the International School of Stavanger (ISS), a co-educational day school located in the Hafrsfjord neighborhood of Norway, serving students aged 3 to 18. Established in 1966, ISS instructs entirely in English, offering Norwegian, Spanish, and French as language subjects. The academic pathway integrates cross-cultural educational standards in the early and primary years, before transitioning to the Cambridge IGCSE in Grade 10 and the IB Diploma Programme in Grades 11 and 12. Students at ISS utilise specific on-campus facilities, including an indoor bouldering and climbing hall, a six-lane 400-metre running track, four gymnasiums, and a sand volleyball court. A truly unique feature of our program is the integration of "Leirskole," a traditional Norwegian initiative where students in Grades 4 through 8 participate in multi-day outdoor expeditions to build practical environmental and teamwork skills in nature.
