Private schools in Zagreb host many diplomats´ children
Croatian Times
There are five private primary schools in Zagreb in which children of diplomats are among the students.
The students start learning foreign languages in the first grade, and many after-school hours are spent in sporting activities at the elite facilities available at most of the schools.
Osnovna Skola Kreativni Razvoj (Creative Development Primary School) takes its students on educational excursions to different places around the world, including Greece, India, China, Egypt and Central America.
Open since 1994, it charges 31,000 kuna (4,270 Euros) in tuition annually, the Croatian daily 24 Sata has reported.
Over 60 per cent of students at Jewish private school "Lauder-Hugo Kon" are not Jewish, and there is no obligatory religious education there. For the first four years, students do not receive grades, which are kept secret. Tuition is 21,785 kuna (3,000 Euros)a year.
At Waldorf school, tuition is around 13,800 kuna or 1,900 Euros per year, while the Montessori school charges 14,400 kuna (1,983 Euros).
The Cambridge certificates received upon successful completion of Montessori school allow students to begin their high school education anywhere else in the world.
