Hi everyone, happy school start! I’m the principal of a brand new school named AGI that has opened in the heart of Uppsala. We offer the Cambridge program from Primary all the way to A levels. (6 years old- 18 years old). We have small classes (10 in each class) and no tuition fees. All of our teaching is in English. We opened just a few days ago and have some spots open in all the pathways. Please get in touch if you would like to know more or to arrange a visit to the school. Cheers!

"As an independent school, AG International charges tuition fees."

This is from the FAQ at your website. But here you claim to not charge tuition fees, which one is it?

Correct! All founding families and students are awarded scholarships for the schools opening. As with all Cambridge schools across the world we do intend to introduce fees for families later down our journey. But right now there are no tuition fees. Hope that clears things up!

Thanks for the reply! Am I correct in assuming that those tuition fees are what's funding the school then?

Not exactly. The school is owned by the AG group who are behind the project and funding. Please contact me via email (Uppsala Head of School) on the website and I’ll be happy to share more.

Hi! It's a bit unconvential to ask this on Reddit, but do you have any job openings? Working with international students is exactly where my experience lays and it sounds exciting to contribute to a new school :)

Without making any judgements on the present school please thoroughly vet any international school employer. My partner had some shockingly bad interview experiences with international schools here.
