ISI sports folk high school
At ISI we love sports. Here, you get a chance to develop yourself - as a person and within the sport you are passionate about. We want to inspire you to nurture dreams, community and curiosity - and prepare you to face the World.
ISI springs from the dynamic sports community in Midtjylland where the school is located. ISI consists of a sports boarding school and a course and events department. Sport is the foundation of our entire school and of all of the activities at ISI.
ISI Sports High School and ISI Sports Boarding School both offer a number of attractive sports courses, which, coupled with our unique facilities and our strong relationship with the local sports clubs, makes a stay at ISI unique.
Our instructors are, apart from being highly qualified, also dedicated teachers, and they are all part of daily life at ISI.
Denmark and folk high schools
The framework for the Danish folk high schools - or high schools, as they are called today - was established as early as 1830, when the Danish poet Grundtvig wanted to take a stand against elitist pedagogy and instead create a type of teaching which would enlighten and inspire. The folk high schools were created to meet the need for enlightenment throughout the wide population, a need which had developed alongside the process of democratisation.
Since then, the underlying philosophy and the folk high schools themselves have been further developed, but a course at a folk high school still has its roots in insight, outlook and inspiration.
At a folk high school there are no exams in connection with the courses and there are no specific prerequisites for taking part. A folk high school is for everyone.
The average age of the students at ISI is between 17 and 30 years.
