Danderyd Upper Secondary School – A school with high ambitions

Danderyd Upper Secondary School is one of Stockholm's largest upper secondary schools with approximately 1,400 students. The school consists of four university-preparatory programs (EK, NA, SA, TE) as well as a small adapted upper secondary school. The school also has a successful NIU (National Sports Education) operation, a nationally recruited mathematics elite program, and an AST (Advanced Studies in Teaching) operation within the SA program. The operations function well with various focuses and many fine traditions. Danderyd Upper Secondary School (Dagy) has high goals, and the vast majority of students continue to higher education.

School Goals

Our goal is to be the best upper secondary school in the county. This means that our:

  • Students learn the most of all
  • Students feel well, enjoy the school, and have chosen to study with us
  • Employees feel well

We take these goals seriously and investigate them regularly. Among other things, we analyze employee surveys and the proportion of first-choice applicants. Regarding our students learning the most, we are careful to ensure this is not measured solely by grades but also includes measures of grade inflation and socioeconomic analyses.

To achieve this goal, we focus primarily on developing teaching in an evidence-informed direction with a cognitive science focus. We offer our teachers in-depth competence development within the field of cognitive science as well as opportunities to practice the craft of teaching.

Danderyd Adapted Upper Secondary School

Danderyd Adapted Upper Secondary School is part of Danderyd Upper Secondary School but has its own premises adapted to its own operations in a separate part of the school. Lessons take place in own premises, but students move freely around the school to go to the cafeteria, library, and sports hall. This means that as a student you can be part of a large school but on your own terms. We have space for 16 students divided into two groups.
