Inclusion and Integration at Dibber International School Sollentuna
At Dibber International School Sollentuna, inclusion means more than bringing different nationalities together. It means ensuring that every student can participate fully in learning, friendships and the wider school community.
For families moving to Sweden, beginning a new school can feel both exciting and unfamiliar. Our bilingual Swedish and English environment helps provide continuity while students become accustomed to Swedish language, school routines, traditions and everyday life.
We believe that successful integration should add to a child’s identity—not replace it. Students are encouraged to share their languages, experiences and perspectives. These differences enrich classroom discussions and help the entire school community develop empathy, curiosity and international-mindedness.
Inclusion is equally important for children who have always lived in Sweden. They gain daily experience of communicating across cultures, considering different viewpoints and building relationships with people whose lives may be different from their own.
Through learning, creative activities, sport and shared experiences, students build confidence and a sense of belonging
.
Our goal is for every child to feel at home in Sweden, proud of who they are and ready to participate in a global society.
Bilingual education
We immerse our students in both Swedish and English, enabling them to navigate the world of today.
Students learn in both Swedish and English, with up to 50% of their education taught in English. Swedish remains a central part of school life, while English is introduced progressively to build confidence in both languages.
Swedish curriculum & IB education
We prepare our students for an international environment, by adopting the IB framework for an exploration-based approach to learning. (ibo.org)
We combine the Swedish national curriculum, LGR22, with the IB Primary Years Programme and Middle Years Programme. Students develop strong subject knowledge while learning to investigate, think critically, collaborate and understand different perspectives.
Technology & innovation
We empower our students by providing first-class facilities and cutting-edge technology, so they can become pioneers in a digital landscape.
Technology is not simply something our students use, it is something they learn to understand, question and create with. Digital tools support research, collaboration, creativity and problem-solving while helping students become responsible participants in a changing world.
