It consists of a nursery and primary school, (Swedish: förskolan och grundskolan), for pupils aged up to 16 years, located near St Paul's School in Barnes, London, and a gymnasium (gymnasiet), for 16- to 18-year-olds, in Richmond, London, co-located with Richmond, The American International University in London. The sixth form of the school has three programmes: a science programme, and a social science programme focusing on civics and a business administration programme focusing on economics.
