MERIDIAN KIDS KINDERGARTEN

Our Kindergarten program is designed to help each child reach their full potential in an environment that is challenging, secure and nurturing. This is an exciting entry into a child's formal education and it is our hope that it will be a very positive beginning!

We believe that young children learn through active, purposeful interactions with a wide variety of learning materials and activities which develop the growth of the whole child.

Educational program and class work is taught in English by native teacher from USA together with 3 other great English speaking teachers.
Meridian Kids Kindergarten Preschool is intended for children of all nations with or without knowledge of English. We provide a high quality services adapted to the individual needs of children and their parents. During the daily program children are divided into 3 groups according to their age.

The daily lessons are organized by the teachers designed to develop in young children an understanding of:

 English language and literacy
 Math – numbers, addition + subtraction
 Alphabet
 Introduction of History
 Introduction of Geography
 Science
 Time
 Social relations
 Creative representation
 Music and Art lessons

The teacher’s role is to prepare materials that will develop an understanding of these concepts and to interact with the children in ways that develop language and thinking.

Every child is a partner for us. All our teachers are highly qualified with pedagogical education and international experience. Every child has a portfolio. This portfolio is for parents, who can look at it any time, find out about their child´s development and possibly discuss achievements, failures and further procedure with teachers.

THE PRIMARY SCHOOL

The primary school section was established in 2006.  We teach according to the National Curriculum of England.

The Primary middle school section is for students ages 6-10.
The language of education for primary school is English but for Czech children there is also a Czech language program, plus additional languages as French or Spanish.
The aim and methods for primary school education are designed to strengthen positive elements of character development and promote inquiry based learning. Children learn through asking questions to acquire the knowledge base, discover connections and draw conclusions. Special activities are prepared by our professional staff to instill constructive habits and values in children such as disciplined work, reflective thinking, open-indedness and caring for others.
All our teachers are highly qualified with pedagogical education and international experience from North America, South America, Europe and Africa.

THE SECONDARY SCHOOL

The Secondary school section is for students ages 10-18.
Children from all national, cultural and religious backgrounds create a rich and affirmative school environment where they accept and learn from each other's differences. The language of instruction is English but knowledge of the English language is not a prerequisite for admission. There is a preparatory intensive language course for children with poor English.
Along with English, students also study another foreign language as French or Spanish.  For Czech students there are compulsory Czech language and history lessons.
The academic mission of the middle school section is to prepare its students rigorously in all subject fields for higher education. However, emphasis is placed on English, Math, Biology, Geography, Business, Economy, Science and IT and Technology education.
The learning experience is enhanced through annual school trips. Foreign countries are preferred destinations for these trips because they increase the international exposure for the students.

Meridian International School is a member of University of Cambridge International Examinations Centre.
