How We Learn
At our high school, students shape their studies around their interests and ambitions. They choose from a range of AP subjects and Maturita seminars, learn through active and cooperative methods and work with teachers who support and guide them along their academic journey.
Elective Subjects
In every year, our timetable includes lessons set aside for each student’s own academic specialisation. In Years 1 and 2, students choose one-year AP subjects from courses taught at school and online. In Years 3 and 4, they continue with specialist seminars in psychology, economics, applied biology, mathematics, chemistry, physics or social sciences, or carry on with the AP programme.
A Leader in the AP Programme
We’ve been running the AP programme since 2018 and, as co-founders of the European Association of AP Schools, we help shape its development. We teach seven AP subjects directly at school. Compared with the IB, AP allows a more flexible combination of subjects across the high school years, so students decide for themselves in which fields they want to reach university level.
Teaching That Goes Deeper
We combine active and cooperative methods with project-based, problem-based and inquiry-based learning. Students work with hypotheses, evaluate information, look for solutions and present their results. This builds analytical and critical thinking, independence and the skills they need for university study.
Academic Quality
Truly bilingual education combines deep subject knowledge with strong academic language skills. We teach specialist subjects in both Czech and English, so students explore each field in depth in both languages. They master precise subject terminology, work with Czech and international sources and learn to write academic papers independently in both languages.
An International Teaching Team
Fully qualified teachers from all over the world combine deep expertise with an individual approach to every student. They keep developing professionally, draw on current educational research and create an environment built on trust, cooperation and mutual respect.
Career Guidance
From Year 1, we help students plan their academic future. Together we choose suitable AP subjects, specialist seminars and extracurricular activities, build a personal portfolio and explore university options. In the later years, we focus on choosing universities, admission requirements, personal statements, applications and interview preparation.
