Published fees are shown below in SEK. They are not converted to euros.

Published subsidised-category tuition in SEK. Families without subsidy eligibility pay more; confirm registration and personal-number requirements.

Ask whether registration, meals, transport, learning support and boarding are included. A fee for one year group may not apply to another.

Foundation, IGCSE and IB Diploma

Foundation serves ages 3–5; primary covers ages 5–11; secondary leads to IGCSE at ages 11–16; the IB Diploma follows at 16–18. The primary school uses the International Primary Curriculum. These are different stages of one pathway, so confirm the appropriate year group and the available subjects for a child moving from another system.

Applications throughout the year

The school accepts applications throughout the year and states that it does not use an entrance exam. It reviews school reports, identity documents and relevant learning assessments. Admissions may arrange a conversation about language or individual needs. An offer depends on a suitable place and the school’s ability to meet the child’s needs.

Discuss individual needs before accepting

Applicants with language or learning needs may meet the Head of Individual Needs as part of the admissions review. Share current assessment reports and ask which help is available in the intended year group. The existence of an individual-needs team does not guarantee a place or establish the exact level of support for every child.

Two sites in the Stockholm area

The school lists Altorp Campus at Östra Valhallavägen 17, 182 68 Djursholm, and Ekeby Campus at Rinkebyvägen 4, 182 36 Danderyd. Confirm which campus serves the intended year group before choosing accommodation or planning the commute. A visit should cover the actual classrooms and daily travel arrangements for your child.

The application fee is SEK 3,000 per child, capped at SEK 9,000 per family. Enrolment is SEK 60,000 for each of the first two children and SEK 50,000 for the third and later children.

Fees and the first-year budget

BISS’s 2026/27 table depends on eligibility for municipal funding. Families without the required registration, personal number or subsidy approval cover the shortfall. Year 1 rises to SEK 179,000 without eligibility. Application costs SEK 3,000 per child, capped at SEK 9,000 per family. Enrolment is SEK 60,000 for the first two children and SEK 50,000 thereafter. The page’s introductory range is older; this table uses its labelled 2026/27 figures.

Application and budget details

The 2026/27 payment terms divide tuition into two equal halves for autumn and spring. Existing-family invoices are issued in February and September with 30-day payment terms. New entrants receive dates based on their start. Pupils joining after the October or Easter break pay half the relevant term fee. After-school care, some activities and residential trips can be separate. Confirm the full fee where subsidy eligibility is unresolved.
