IEGS TO CLOSE JUNE 2026
On February 6th, IES announced the sad news that after 25 years of providing high quality upper secondary education, Internationella Engelska Gymnasiet Södermalm (IEGS) will close in June 2026. The school leadership and HQ functions will be working closely to ensure all students’ right to conclude their education in a good way, either with us or with other schools (current year 1 students).
The organisation in the school will gradually be remodelled to fit the smaller operations as the school is phased out and eventually closed.
As a first step in this process, admission of new students closes for 2025-26. Therefore open house, entrance exams, auditions and IEGS experience days are cancelled.
We ask prospective students to modify your upper secondary school choices before February 17th.

At IEGS you will be well-prepared for university and your future, in Sweden and abroad. Study in English, in the heart of Södermalm, and the world awaits.
The House System
At IEGS we have introduced the house system adapted from the British model. The House System fosters a strong sense of community and belonging. House life at IEGS is an integral part of the daily running of the school. Teachers and students are assigned to a house, which forms the basis for group activities, mentor time, assemblies and competitions.
