We at St. George International School and Preschool offer a curriculum that takes into consideration the children’s age, competencies, and interests in order to fulfill their potential. Throughout the school day the children and students are simultaneously taught in compliance with :
The I nternational Educational Standard – Cambridge International Education for Primary, Lower Secondary, IGCSE and GCE A-Level , as the curriculum is taught in English language ; The State Educational Standard of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Bulgaria. The structure of the academic programme allows us to integrate students coming from foreign schools, and students from St. George International School and Preschool to be easily integrated into other schools in Bulgaria and abroad at every stage of their education. For the needs of the children whose native language is neither Bulgarian nor English, the lessons are planned in a way to improve their knowledge in the particular area as well as to encourage them to be active in each subject.
We teach and educate children in a wealth of Bulgarian and English Language, literature, culture, and history. A high level of literacy and the ability to express oneself properly are part of our School Community Values.
At St. George International School and Preschool English is considered a native language. We communicate in English not only during classes, but also during breaks, lunch, and extracurricular activities. The successful mastering of the content in mathematics and science , by both international and Bulgarian students, is one of our main priorities.
We at St. George International School and Preschool apply innovative teaching methods of collaboration using interactive and advanced educational resources, cross-curricular links, and project learning. This combination of teaching styles expands the learning process and develops skills for critical thinking, analysing and synthesising information, building presentation skills, team-player skills leadership, and planning skills.
Alongside the strong academic programme, St. George International School and Preschool is equipped with high-tech scientific and PC labs, where our students not only explore the world of Science, but they create Science.

The students are encouraged not just to memorize things, but to build their own sense of understanding which to be shared with others. With mutual support and respect, we establish a community where our children advance and grow.
The classes provide unlimited opportunities for acquiring knowledge and for expressing their individual talents and abilities. This way the children discover a love of learning – for the sake of knowledge and the confidence it gives them!
