Admission criteria
We prioritize applicants based on the following admission criteria:

- Children of EU institution staff members (whose education is funded by the EU Commission) are entitled to admission. Please contact the school for verification before you apply.
Category b1: International employees’ children
- Children of whom one or both parents are international employees who come to Denmark with the purpose of working in Danish or international companies, organisations and educational institutions.
Category b2: Returned Danish employees’ children
- Children of whom one or both parents are returned Danish employees working in Danish or international companies and organisations, and who have had a permanent workplace outside Denmark for a total of one year within the last five years.
Category b3: Children from other European Schools
- Children moving here from another European School.
Category b4: Local applicants
- In case of extra places, these may be offered to local applicants who meet the necessary language requirements for admission.

Special considerations
- Disabilities: If your child has a permanent disability, be it long-term physical, mental, intellectual, or sensory impairment that has required special assistance at their current school or will require reasonable accommodation at the screening, this must be noted in the application. It can be noted under the field special support requirements. Medical documentation must be uploaded under other documentation. If your child does not have a diagnosis, you must attach a statement from the kindergarten/school describing the child’s special needs.
If your child has a permanent disability, it will be taken into consideration in the selection process to prevent any distinction, exclusion, or restriction on the basis of the disability. - Siblings (for new P0 classes only): Siblings of pupils already enrolled in the º£½ÇÔ´´ are always invited to a screening and will be assessed in each category (b.1.-b.4.) on an equal footing with the other applicants. Siblings cannot skip a category. Siblings are only admitted if they meet the academic, linguistic, and social criteria. Otherwise, there is a risk that the child may not thrive academically and socially.
Next, proceed to Step 3 to find the right class for your child.
