General info on GALILEO SCHOOL
GALILEO SCHOOL is a privately owned English language bilingual school in Bratislava in Slovakia (close to Vienna and Budapest). We provide an integrated English and Slovak curriculum to approximately 550 students aged 3 to 19.
GALILEO SCHOOL prepares students for further education, professional and personal life within Europe and beyond. Our graduates are well prepared to study in both the national and international context. Students gain profound English language skills along with broad foundations in a variety of subjects within the curriculum. The key component of our educational philosophy is additive bilingualism, which develops both the mother tongue and the English language.
The factors that contribute to the high quality of education at GALILEO SCHOOL include a small number of pupils per class (maximum 16); students with good behaviour, lessons that motivate students and are fun, modern equipment, and passionate teachers who are innovative professionals. The language of instruction is English and is complemented with original British and American textbooks. Students prepare for a variety of language and subject examination such as GCE A levels, International GCSE, YLE, IELTS, S.A.T. We are registered with British Council, Edexcel, UCAS, and accredited by the Education Ministry of Slovakia.
Bratislava is the capital city of Slovakia and Slovakia is a member of the EU. It offers a relatively inexpensive and yet high standard of living. It is a charming city spread on the both banks of the Danube river. With its position in central Europe, Bratislava is easy to reach. It is located just an hour from Vienna, two hours from Budapest and three hours from Prague, the three wonderful capital cities. Other European countries can also be reached by low-cost flights from Bratislava International Airport.
We appreciate that moving to a new country is a big step, so we will help you find accommodation, offer you free Slovak lessons and give you the necessary help in getting settled.
