ISGR holds accreditations from several national and international organizations. These accreditations confirm that we meet high standards in teaching, leadership, and student well-being. They also reflect our strong commitment to quality education and continuous improvement.
Families moving to Gothenburg can feel confident that their children will receive a consistent, high-quality education that is recognized around the world.
ISGR is an authorized IB World School, offering the Primary Years Programme (PYP) since 2003 and the Middle Years Programme (MYP) since 2000.
Being part of the IB community means that our teaching follows a well-established global framework, focused on developing inquiring, caring, and knowledgeable young people who are prepared for a rapidly changing world.
What makes IB special at ISGR:
Our students are part of a global network of schools recognized by universities worldwide.
The IB programmes support not just academic growth, but also social and emotional development.
Students build essential skills like research, critical thinking, communication, and time management.
Our teachers have access to high-quality training, materials, and global professional support.
Maintaining IB accreditation is an ongoing process. Every five years, we carry out a full self-study and are reviewed to ensure we continue to meet IB’s high standards in teaching, leadership, and school culture.
Since 2008, ISGR has been accredited by the Council of International Schools (CIS) — a global organization that ensures high standards in all areas of school life.
This accreditation confirms that we are a school focused not only on academic achievement, but also on student well-being, ethical leadership, and global citizenship.
Key features of CIS accreditation:
CIS accreditation also helps us attract experienced international staff, build trust with families, and ease student transitions to universities and schools around the world.
ISGR operates under the supervision of two national authorities in Sweden:
