Why enrol?
Education is an asset for life. Our pupils reap multifaceted benefits that extend beyond the classroom. By attending Greek school, our pupils:
- Learn to speak, read and write in Greek – and gain the bilingual edge!
- Exercise their brain by learning a different alphabet and a rich language of great plasticity and harmony
- Understand English better – many everyday words (e.g. school, music, phone) are of Greek origin
- Communicate and connect with Greek-speaking relatives and friends
- Gain insights into the rich Greek history and culture by participating in our events and workshops
- Improve their understanding of their roots and self-identity
- Build lasting friendships
- Develop teamwork and collaboration
- Gain confidence through stage time
- Enjoy taking part in a range of activities
Our Greek School welcomes all children irrespective of background or language competency. We make every effort to cater for the diverse needs of our pupils, so that every child can gain maximum benefit from their attendance in all areas of school life.
We accept children from the age of 4 years and over to our nursery/reception class and from the age of 6 years and over to the main school. We consider all applications on a case-by-case basis and offer an individual pupil assessment by the headteacher so that each child attends the most suitable class depending on Greek language ability and maturity. We offer a three-week trial to our new younger pupils to allow them to settle smoothly at the school. All applications are considered on a ‘first come, first served’ basis.
If you would like your child to enrol, please download a copy of our application form here and send the completed application form to the headteacher at headteacher@greekschoolleeds.org.uk
For more information about our school or to arrange a visit please contact the Greek school secretary at secretary@greekschoolleeds.org.uk
