Trondheim International School

THIS is an IB world school, serving our community by offering the globally renowned International Baccalaureate curriculum to students aged 6-16 years (grade 1-10). We are proud of the diversity of our school, with students and staff from over 40 countries. Equally, we value being an inclusive school for everyone – international and Norwegian students alike. 

Here at THIS we believe that schools should be joyous places of learning and belonging. The IB curriculum is centered around a holistic, educational philosophy. A philosophy we believe passionately in. It encourages inquiry and student agency. To us, that means supporting our students in learning to ask the right questions, not just learning the right answers. It means learning to think critically, to become resilient and creative learners who are well-equipped to handle the unknown challenges of the future. We believe it is these young people who will go on to affect real change in their local, national and global communities. 

We have a strong sense of community at THIS. By focusing on our core values of care, share, respect and learn, we are able to foster strong, positive relationships with all members of the THIS community. We are fortunate to have highly qualified and motivated staff, engaged parents, passionate collaborators in the wider community and not least, enthusiastic and kind students. 

We are fortunate to be situated in beautiful surroundings by Kristiansten Fortress, just a few minutes walk from the centre of Trondheim. This affords our students plenty of opportunity to take their learning outside of the classroom, into beautiful green spaces or to take advantage of the many cultural and educational offers Norway’s capital of Science and Technology has to offer. 

Please do not hesitate to contact us for an informal chat, a visit or a trial day to get to know us better. We’re sure you will see why THIS is where your child belongs.
