Beehive School is a private, independent, blended preparatory school for all students. Both boys and girls from 3 to 11 years old are accepted here. Since its opening in the 1920s, Beehive School has gained a reputation for excellence in offering pastoral care to its pets and providing excellent academic performance based on high standards of quality.

The small size of Beehive School and its staff allows us to talk about an almost family character. Every student will be heard, teachers and professionals will meet the hopes and aspirations of parents, while at the same time allowing the child to develop naturally in the school environment, without pressure and excessive control.

Beehive's mission is to prepare students for successful learning, work and everyday life: this is the foundation of all the school's activities and its concept. All employees ensure that the potential of students is properly realised: to be convinced of this, it is enough to look at the exam results and cases of successful admission to the best British independent schools.

Along with ensuring success in the academic field, Beehive School places great importance on the education of children, offering a diverse, vibrant program of study covering different areas: visual and expressive arts, scientific activities, humanities studies, physical education. In addition, the school offers a rich extracurricular program, organized in the form of a diverse and well-thought-out network of clubs and associations, activities outside the school.

Beehive School has an extensive program of extracurricular activities, including a computer club, a sports club, a drama club, and a music club. Children can play board games or cricket (on school grounds), participate in special activities organized for them, and do homework together.

Themed tea parties are held regularly. On Fridays, Multi-Activities are held: on this day, from 13:00 to 15:00, students play board games and computer educational games, solve puzzles and engage in LEGO building, art and various crafts.

In addition, two paid programs have been implemented that allow children to be occupied during the breakfast period (breakfast must be brought from home) and/or in the period after classes (a kind of analogue of after-school groups, allowing children to do homework at school under the supervision of professional teachers who are ready to help, assist, recommend additional individual lessons; the child can request help or ask to check the completed task).
