School Premises

Premises and School Grounds

The International School of Bergen is situated in a calm residential area in Sandsli, 15 kilometers outside the city centre of Bergen. The school building was modernised and renovated in 2019.

It houses the school’s three sections: the Early Childhood Centre, Lower School and Upper School. This allows students and staff alike, to get to know each other across sections, which again strengthens the sense of community and diversity that we cherish.

In addition to individual classrooms, ISB facilities include an inviting library, art rooms, a well-equipped science laboratory and a gymnasium.

Within our educational programmes, we make good use of facilities in the neighborhood. These include a swimming pool and an ice rink, in addition to other sports facilities.

Regular field trips are equally made to the local science discovery centre, museums, art galleries and local sites of historical interest. Bergen’s wonderful countryside is just on our doorstep and is used as an extended classroom.

Our school premises are provided through a long-standing partnership with the City of Bergen. We have also fostered partnerships with local business organizations such as the Bergen Chamber of Trade and Commerce and Business Region Bergen.
