English schools in Europe
Finland - Vantaa
School:International School of Vantaa
The language of instruction is predominantly English. We provide schooling for those children whose home language is English or who have sufficient fluency in English to cope in the classroom.
Our school is unified, consisting of grades 1-9 with approximately 350 students. One of our aims is to produce competent, self-motivated students who can function in an international environment and cope in English.
The general framework is determined by the National Board of Education with our school developing its own tailor-made curriculum within these parameters. We incorporate many subject areas into thematic units, which give children an opportunity to build on their own strengths and learning styles.
