Institut Sankt Joseph Copenhagen

The self-governing institution's formation ideals and daily activities are rooted in the Catholic-humanistic views on life and man.

The school's primary aim is to develop thoughtful and caring students who take their lives, opportunities and choices seriously.

The school is situated in the Østerbro section of Copenhagen, directly across from the United States Embassy and only minutes from the heart of the city and the coast.

The school hosts a bi-annual event entitled: "Responsibility for fellow man and the world" in order to promote social justice, and raise funds for those less fortunate Every ninth grade class, immediately prior to the completion of their studies, has the opportunity to go on a teacher led retreat and discuss with their peers what they have learned, and where they are going now in life.

The school has a strong ecumenical profile, with activities such as the daily "morning song", where students of all beliefs come together in solidarity to start the day.
