You can find daily information about us on our social media.
by Monika Hrušková
We want to keep up with time and we want you to have access to the latest information from our school. This is why we are working on our profiles on social networks this year. In addition to the previously existing Facebook, you will find us most recently on Instagram. On both profiles, we acquaint our subscribers a few times a week with what's going on at school. If you follow us, you will not miss out on any important information. Through our photos you can also see what our school events look like and find out a lot of interesting things from ISO, information, for example, about our various projects. Obviously, safety is extremely important, so we consider it our duty to constantly talk to children about social networks and the potential risks of using them. We recommend that you keep an eye on whether and how your kids use Facebook or Instagram. Remember the statutory age limit, which is likely to increase to 15 years in the Czech Republic, with 13 years of age being allowed to use social networks with the consent of parents.
In addition to Facebook and Instagram, of course, once a month, you'll still find the most important news in our newsletter. We also recommend keeping an eye on the school website which we are constantly improving, making it both clearer and more interesting. For example, we recently updated photos on the home page. In February, we launched a new site about school houses. So, if you don’t know yet how and why the houses at our school work or why they have the names Foxes, Matildas, Twits, and Wonkas, then this section is just for you.
Anyway if you have any further ideas on how to improve our website or social media, we’ll be happy to hear your tips.

Your child will become a global citizen with wide understanding of local and international topics.

Emphasis on skills development (not just memorising).
Individual approach; school’s ability to motivate for improvement.
Your child will be excited to come to school.
You are not buying success, you are paying for the school to monitor your child’s progress to their goals and motivate them to fulfil their potential.
We are not a selective school: we believe that everybody can be successful.
Jolly Phonics is an engaging way to teach children pre -reading and pre -writing skills using phonics. Phonics is the teaching of the sounds that letters make, rather than the names of letters that are taught in the alphabet, because it is the sounds that are useful for reading and writing, not the names. These sounds are taught in a systematic way, alongside all of the skills needed for being a fluent reader and writer in future. Jolly Phonics also teaches all of this in a fun and engaging way, through characters, stories, actions, songs and games! To read more about Jolly Phonics, clickhere.
ORT is a reading scheme which has been developed to help children learn to read from the age of 4. This scheme is used by a vast majority of preschools and schools in the UK and around the world.ORT includes popular characters and illustrations such as Biff, Chip and Kipper, Floppy, Wordless Stories and easy regular word books to capture children’s imagination and interest and help them develop their pre reading skills. It is an excellent way to practise the skills learned through the Jolly Phonics Programme..
Cambridge Primary ENGLISH promotes an enquiry-based approach, developing learners’ confidence, creativity and intellectual engagement. Learners develop English skills that they can apply to a range of different purposes and audiences in everyday situations and in study.
We teach English as a first language. Pupils that are only starting to learn English or need some additional support are allocated to our intensive English as a Second Language (ESL) programme.
More about Cambridge Primary EnglishCambridge Primary MATHEMATICS focuses on principles, patterns, systems, functions and relationships so that learners can apply their mathematical knowledge and develop a holistic understanding of the subject. Knowing your times tables facts without practical application and without developing alongside some good problem solving skills is not that helpful - in our school, we make sure our pupils know why they are learning it and how they can use the specific knowledge and skill.
