Enhanced Greek High School Programme

For the final two years of High School, we have developed a comprehensive programme that guarantees exceptional student performance whilst transcending the conventional tutoring model. Through a structured system for knowledge organisation, students benefit from complete academic and psychological support, learning to optimise their energy and time management to excel when it matters most. The programme provides:

  • More instructional hours for specialisation subjects, covering the additional hours that would normally take place in private tutoring.
  • More free time at home, giving students the opportunity to study independently and rest.
  • Continuous support at home with extra resources, notes, online tests and live contact with teachers via online ManageBac platform.

Our bilingual curriculum

Our bilingual curriculum

Students enrolled in our Bilingual Programme advance their journey with 15 hours per week of English-medium instruction through CLIL, now extending to more challenging subjects including maths, social studies, MUN, sciences, art and PE. This progression builds academic language proficiency whilst maintaining strong foundations in Greek.
 
In their final MYP year, learners choose between the MYP Certificate pathway, with increased English-medium learning, or the Bilingual Programme stream, with the opportunity to work towards Cambridge and Michigan certifications, both ensuring readiness for rigorous academic futures.
