Admissions - Admissions are managed based on whims and fancies of 1 person. She rejects international schools students even from Sweden on the basis that they are not from Swedish curriculum system and not reflecting appropriate year and grades in gymnasieantagningen

Going to ISSR for 2 years had a horrible experience. My first year was absolutely had an awesome year but for my second year it was horrible. Not only the teachers were so mean and unfair, they put ALL of my friends in the other class. I really hated that year. And also getting email home for NOOOOOOOOOOO reason. Stupid! DO not recommend this school

Not a school that sees individuals or attends well to children who have needs. Reliant on the fact they have a queue. Some amazing teachers but they are not supported by the management team.

The interaction with the admissions officer is impossible. It looks like they just want to throw some policy and admission criteria at you for not admitting or considering your application. They are not interested to understand a case and genuinely help.

Unarguably the best school in Stockholm. Except for the food, but I'd take that trade for the education and teachers you get there
