Northern Lights International School: Celebrating Diversity and Excellence in Education
Northern Lights International School is a state-funded private school located in Oslo, Skådalen. Established in 2015, the school has quickly gained a reputation for providing high-quality education to students from diverse backgrounds. With over 200 students and 30 employees representing approximately 40 nationalities, Northern Lights International School is truly a melting pot of cultures.
At Northern Lights International School, we believe that diversity is not just something to be tolerated but celebrated. We recognize that our differences make us stronger and enrich our learning experiences. Our curriculum reflects this belief by incorporating multicultural perspectives into all subjects.
Our dedicated team of teachers are passionate about education and committed to helping each student reach their full potential. They create a supportive learning environment where students feel safe to express themselves and take risks in their learning.
We offer an international curriculum that prepares students for success both academically and personally. Our program includes the International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme (PYP) for grades K-5, the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP) for grades 6-10, and the IB Diploma Programme (DP) for grades 11-12.
The PYP focuses on developing inquiry-based learning skills while fostering creativity, critical thinking, communication skills, intercultural understanding, and global engagement among young learners aged between three years old up until twelve years old.
The MYP builds on these foundational skills by encouraging students to become independent learners who take responsibility for their own learning journey while developing essential life skills such as time management techniques or study habits which will help them succeed throughout their academic career.
Finally, the DP provides an internationally recognized qualification that prepares students for university-level studies or employment opportunities worldwide with its rigorous academic program designed around six subject groups: Language & Literature; Language Acquisition; Individuals & Societies; Sciences; Mathematics; Arts & Electives.
In addition to our academic program, we offer a range of extracurricular activities that allow students to explore their interests and develop new skills. These include sports teams, music ensembles, drama productions, and community service projects.
At Northern Lights International School, we are committed to providing a safe and inclusive learning environment where all students feel valued and respected. We believe that education is the key to unlocking opportunities for our students and preparing them for success in an increasingly globalized world.
