The language of instruction is English. We provide schooling for those children whose home language is English or who have sufficient fluency in English to cope in the classroom.
Our school is unified, consisting of grades 1-9 with approximately 419 students. One of our aims is to produce competent, self-motivated students who can function in an international environment and cope in English.
The general framework is determined by the National Board of Education with our school developing its own tailor-made curriculum within these parameters. We incorporate many subject areas into thematic units, which give children an opportunity to build on their own strengths and learning styles.
French and German are offered as electives starting from grade 4 if there are at least 16 pupils in the group. Swedish instruction begins at grade 7 as a compulsory course. Our selection of students for the school is based upon oral and/or written assessment in English. Our school accepts predominately children living in Vantaa. Parental and professional support contributes to meeting our school's mission. These resources provide us with programs such as after school clubs.
We have school premises in Kartanonkoski. The building also includes a daycare center and a public library.
