Introduction

Nordic International School Nacka is a Swedish comprehensive school with an international profile for students in grades F–9, located in Nacka. It operates on a bespoke curriculum designed to blend Swedish schooling with international perspectives, including up to half of teaching in English as students progress. Founded in 2023, the school emphasizes three pillars: World-class teaching, Order and tidiness, and Nordic Spirit. The teaching is evidence-based and draws on practices from leading schools, with a bilingual environment that uses Swedish and international teachers. In fall 2025, the school opened its doors for F-3, extending coverage to younger ages and creating a continuous F–9 provision. Facilities include classrooms, a library, a recreation room, and spaces for school meals, with a main entrance and houses as part of the campus. English usage increases with age, and the school places strong emphasis on safety, structure, and a sense of community to support well-being.
