Very small school and not diverse.All kids are from India. They are deciding to change school location but for now, its a small building. I wonder how can Danish authorities approve the school building. For registering CPR, Danish authorities has rules for apartment size, but they overlooked for school building size. I visited school with my husband but decided to go with Danish School in Skovlunde.

Dear Sugandha Chakraborty,
I am sorry to hear about your negative opinion of VIS. I would like to update you on a few things from your review. While many of our students do originally come from India, we also have over 13 different nationalities represented at our small school. Please know that like all other schools in Denmark we are supervised by a representative of the Ministry of Children and Education. The supervisor's report is published on our website and clearly summaries the excellent work we do at VIS. We also are proud of our close working relationship with the Ballerup Kommune who is proud to have us as a local international school.

Finally, I also must point out that you have not registered for a visit at our school, if you would like to do this please contact me for an official tour.
Kind regards,
Kari Doyle
VIS Principal

The smaller class sizes and cosy environment is exactly what we were looking for for our son and daughter, and they are both thriving in the school. We are happy with the academic curriculum and the wonderful theme weeks where the kids do projects. Right now we're looking forward to seeing the Viking museum they have created for the parents! I recommend this school highly to anyone looking for a closeknit school community and all the advantages a smaller school has!

The school is not diverse and has majority of kids from India. They have tie up with TCS and all parents employed in TCS only send their kids there. If you are looking for your kid to be in multi cultural environment, this is not a good choice then. Parents over here have already applied to different international schools and go here as last option.
The school lacks infrastructure- there are no proper class rooms- rather they need to combine grades 1 and 2 in one class. They are also planning to start grade 3 and 4 next year- again with class combine concept. They do not have proper segregation between kids grades.
School starts at 8.15am- they do not have before SFO facility as there are no parents willing to have this facility. This makes difficult for both working parents. School also does not have much clubs or facilities for after SFO as well as there are less parents willin... read full review

Dear Amit, I am sorry that you have received incorrect information about VIS. You state that you are a current parent, this is not true. To my knowledge you have no affiliation to our school. Please know that we do follow all Danish regulations concerning COVID-19, specifically that our class groups are kept separate all the time. Our After School Care provides various activities to help the development of our students (ie. music appreciation, cooking projects, art projects, games, dancing, and much mo... read full reply

Viking International  School  is a  fabulous  and  innovative  school at Ballerup, Denmark. My daughter  loves her school  very much .The  principal  and  all the  teachers  work together  to ensure all children are  learning , at the same time  playing  and  having  fun. During online classes  I have noticed that the teachers  are encouraging  the children  to ask questions, use their  imagination and  express  themselves.As a  parent  I am really  very  much  happy  to  see  my child  improvement  in  her  confidence  as well  as  her  love for  learning.

Great to have a school with focus on both STEM as well as language ( both English and Danish). Learning while having fun is what keeps me and my daughter both happy and satisfied!
