In addition, you will build a valuable national as well as international network.
Our vision
Our SSHL vision is to be a holistic and humanistic learning environment which provides each student with knowledge, skills and judgement to create a better future.
During our hundred years, we have fostered and educated leaders, social changers, artists, writers, teachers, diplomats – even His Majesty the Swedish King studied here as a child and young adult.
These people have played an important role in creating our modern society. We are absolutely convinced that our current students will be involved in shaping our future.
Education for life
We have a holistic approach to learning. Our ambition is not only that our students gain academic knowledge in various subjects and an education of the highest standard, but also to practise the skills they need to manage in life, take care of themselves and be happy and healthy – with knowledge, skills and sound judgement.
Our core values play an important role in this process. For 100 years our humanistic core values have been our foundation, built on humanity, equality and the recognition of all human beings’ equal value. Learn about our ethos and school values
