IB PYP principles
The IB PYP offers a research-based, interdisciplinary learning program that strengthens the understanding of connections between different subjects. The program places strong emphasis on contextual and experiential learning, development of thinking skills, and project-based activities. The International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme consists of six interdisciplinary themes, which are explored across all subject groups. These themes were selected based on their relevance to the real world. They have no strict boundaries and create a meaningful and authentic context for teaching and learning. This helps students take responsibility for their own learning process, understand its significance, and connect the curriculum content with the real world.
We explore who we are as individuals, our values, beliefs, and relationships with others.
We learn about our place in the world, the past, the present, and how place and time shape our identity.
We explore the ways in which people convey thoughts, feelings, culture, and creativity.
We learn about natural and human-made systems, technologies, and their impact on our lives.
We learn how our decisions, habits, and learning help us grow and improve.
We explore how to collaborate and solve global problems to share resources responsibly and protect the environment.
IB PYP places great emphasis on developing the following student skills:
Thinking skills
Students develop the ability to think critically and creatively, solve problems, and analyze information. They learn to make informed decisions and deepen their understanding of the world.
Communication (Collaboration)
Children develop the ability to clearly express their thoughts verbally and in writing, listen to others, and collaborate effectively in a team. They learn to show respect for others' opinions and work together to achieve a common goal.
Inquiry skills
Students learn to ask questions, gather, evaluate, and use information from various sources. They develop curiosity and the ability to explore the world independently and responsibly.
Self-control skills
Children learn to manage their emotions, plan their time, pursue set goals, and take responsibility for their learning. They develop perseverance and the ability to work independently.
Social (community) skills
Students develop respect, empathy, and care for others, learning to act responsibly and consciously within the community. They strive to build positive relationships and contribute to creating a better environment.

A Day at Erudito Lyceum
We first heard about Erudito Lyceum through social media when Ariana was still in kindergarten. From the very beginning, what attracted me most was that the school director has a professional pedagogical background and that the school offers the IB program. After visiting the school and speaking with the administration, I had no doubts that this was the school where I wanted to enroll my children — the location was perfect for us, the school didn’t feel overcrowded, classes were small (up to 20 students), which means a more individualized approach to each student. Of course, I was also impressed by the international and modern education with young and promising teachers. I appreciate that Erudito Lyceum is always striving to improve and adapt to new, modern educational methods.
We have been with Erudito since kindergarten, and we are very happy with Ariana’s academic achievements. Her English is excellent, and she really enjoys going to school! Her favorite things about school are her teachers, friends, and the safe, fun environment.

We were looking for a school for our children that offers an open and modern approach to education—one that balances academic achievement with a strong focus on nurturing their developing personalities, general skills, and inner qualities. We really appreciated the founders’ approach to building the teaching team, aiming to bring together truly passionate professionals with prior experience. The teaching staff is truly wonderful! It was also very important for us that Erudito Lyceum is located in the city center, which solved many of our family’s logistical challenges and saved a significant amount of daily time—time we can now spend on other favorite activities, longer dinners, and quality family moments together.
