About our school
We are the only bilingual grammar school in Trnava district having both English and Russian forms of study and our slogan is “Small school – Great things.”
These words reflect our pleasant, modern facilities and the many national and international projects in which our school not only participates in, but also receive positive feedback. One of these was the “Innovative school of the year 2022” prize. Our native-speaker teachers offer regular teambuilding language camps for first-year students prior to beginning school to help them adapt easily. Moreover, students have the possibility to improve their communicative skills during international language stays abroad.
Our school does not only focus on learning foreign languages. Our main goal is to help students to develop independent, creative thinking and especially to apply theory to real life situations. This is possible by fruitful cooperation with science institutions, partner universities and many non-profit organizations. Our students are taught in block – form education in state of art laboratories, school exterior, aimed mostly at subjects related to natural science. Thanks to this integrating form of education, our students are well-prepared to go to universities to study natural sciences. Those more interested in the IT sector have the possibility to join the miniErasmus programmes at the Material- Technology departments of universities in Trnava and Bratislava. Our students are successful participants of SOČ, in which they come up with many outstanding social and scientific projects.
