Many families with children registered at the school, choose to settle in the area. The pupils are a mix of longtime-residential in London and those who are staying for a shorter period of time. A part of the school building is rented out to The Norwegian Kindergarten in London, with whom there is close cooperation. Many of the longtime-residential children will attend both the Norwegian Kindergarten and the Norwegian School.
For the 2018/2019 school year, roughly 65 children attend the school: about 46 Primary School students and 19 Lower Secondary School. There are a total of 14 employees corresponding to 11 FTEs.
The school is owned by an English foundation: The Norwegian School in London Ltd.[1] The school's top management is its Board, consisting a total of six members. Two are elected by parents who have children in this school.
