Applying to Brit-Magyar School for children starting their first year of school

We warmly welcome our future first graders! In September, our Grade 1A class will be led by Ms Barbi, and our Grade 1B class will begin their school journey with Ms Lilla.

If you are still in the process of choosing a school, we have gathered all the essential information on this page that you should know before applying.

Our school boasts a happy learning environment and we look forward to receiving your application

Of course, before making such an important decision, you need to know why it is worth entrusting us with the development of your children…

Because we provide a friendly school environment, so students can reach their fullest potential

Beyond ensuring that children feel happy and comfortable throughout the day, we also place strong emphasis on their continuous academic, social, and emotional development. Our teachers regularly take part in professional training, and their work is supported by a speech and language therapist, a Hungarian as a Foreign Language teacher, and, in Year 1, by the class’s dedicated teaching assistant who supports the children throughout the entire school day.

Because we integrate the English and Hungarian educational standards

English lessons are delivered by native-speaking teachers, complemented by dedicated phonics sessions and the internationally recognised Read Write Inc. (Oxford) literacy programme. In parallel, Hungarian literacy is taught using the Meixner method, in line with the requirements of the national curriculum.

This dual approach enables children to develop the skills and confidence needed to adapt easily to any educational environment.

Because our educational programme is fully in line with the Hungarian National curriculum

Our school follows the National Core Curriculum (NAT), ensuring that pupils do not fall behind the Hungarian curriculum requirements. This also means they can transition back into the state education system at any time, or continue their secondary studies at some of the country’s leading schools.

Because our students can learn in a safe and encouraging environment

We are a small, close-knit and family-like community, where children look forward to coming in every morning. Here, they are encouraged to ask questions, make mistakes, and stay motivated throughout the day while learning confidently in two languages.

Because we have modern, well- equipped classrooms for students

We create a harmonious everyday environment with friendly colours, modern ergonomic furniture, and the latest digital technology.
