Herlufsholm School and Estate is a private day and boarding school by the River Suså in Næstved, about 80 kilometres south of Copenhagen. It aims to be a Danish school of world-class quality with values and pedagogical principles rooted in the Danish cultural heritage.

Herlufsholm Skole upholds the Danish tradition of being open-minded towards global aspects. Our values are based on a solid academic foundation and include responsibility, tradition, leadership, a strong upbringing and being engaged. There is a basic tenet of personal development and democracy both in the school ethos, but also in the Danish national curriculum offered and the IB. As such, we offer unique strengths in the areas of leadership and democracy.

Konfliktråd is a free government service within the Danish Police, which offers both victims and offenders in penal matters the opportunity to participate in a mediation meeting organized by a neutral mediator. Konfliktråd helps to resolve conflicts or remedy the negative consequences of conflicts through dialogue between the participants.
