We care for each other and work to create a workplace where we all thrive and develop. The school has approximately 1500 students and 150 employees and is beautifully located in the heart of Jönköping. The upper secondary programs we offer are EK, ES, IB, NA, and SA.

You will also have overall student responsibility within IB, which includes study and career guidance, and course selection in collaboration with the student health team.
