BPS ZALA IS

COMING SOON

Open Days

For the founders of BPS Zala, emotional security and predictability are among the most important foundational values sought in a school. They believe it's possible for both children and teachers to attend school happily, to maintain curiosity as students, and to grow up without the shadow of performance anxiety overshadowing the joy of learning. They wish for their children to spend a lot of time in nature and consider acquiring knowledge that aligns with the 21st century and developing social skills important.

That's why they launched the BPS Zala microschool in Zalaszentgrót in 2023. Now, we work together to ensure our children become happy, healthy adults who contribute to the wellbeing of their environment. Let them be open to the diversity of the world, able to collaborate with others, and willing and able to reflect on and develop themselves.

We have found a home for BPS Zala in the hills of Zala, in an idyllic rural setting. The nature surrounding the school and the homeliness and simplicity of the interior spaces will contribute to a happy, balanced childhood and will also provide the opportunity for a lot of experiential learning during the school year.

BPS Zala operates as the newest microschool of the already 800-member Budapest School starting from September 2024. Our teachers lead the school based on the BPS model.

WE GO TO SCHOOL WITH JOY
WE GO TO SCHOOL WITH JOY

At our school, children enjoy coming. They are liberated, happy, and creative. They take care of their own health, future, and each other, connecting with themselves and their peers. It is important to us to provide an anxiety-, abuse-, and humiliation-free, emotionally secure environment where conflicts are not swept under the rug, and where everyone is an accepted member of the community. We believe that this is the only way to learn joyfully together.

CREATIVE SCHOOL
CREATIVE SCHOOL

In Budapest School, children consider creativity and learning as their own affair. They study because they are driven by curiosity and interest, because they experience the joy of challenges and progress, because they are in the flow. This is not a competitive arena, but rather a creative, boldly experimental, and inquisitive community of "out of the box" thinkers. In Budapest School, children dare to dream, set goals, and act for themselves and others.

THE PARENTS ARE PARTNERS
THE PARENTS ARE PARTNERS

As parents, we can have an impact on our children's education at Budapest School. Teachers treat parents as partners, and parents and teachers collaborate for the benefit of the children. As parents, we can also be part of a strong community experience, with plenty of opportunities for connection, but it's not obligatory to portray the school in a certain way. Instead, let's just enjoy spending time with similar families like ours.

Creativity is just as important in schools today as literacy. Therefore, it should receive equal emphasis.
