Welcome

DIRECTOR

Dear Current, Future, and Former QSI Bratislava Parents & Students,

It is with great excitement and enthusiasm that I welcome you to QSI International School of Bratislava.  We have been serving the expatriate and local families with unparalleled educational experiences since 1994.  The QSI experience involves a holistic approach to child, youth, and adolescent development.   Currently, the QSI Bratislava campus has students from 30 different countries and faculty members from even more.  At the secondary school, we proudly offer the IB Program (International Baccalaureate) & the AP Program (Advanced Placement)…the only school in Bratislava to offer both!

Our faculty boasts the most talented, passionate, and caring teachers in Slovakia.  Teachers are the number one factor in a child’s learning; and at QSIB, your child will be properly challenged, supported, and engaged in the classroom and on the sports field.  Our students are curious, focused, and welcoming.

Our educational philosophy of Mastery Learning is arguably the most effective and most student-centered educational model in existence today.  Our qualified faculty members are dedicated to your child reaching his/her greatest potential.  If a student does not truly master an academic unit of study, our teachers will continue to work with this student until he/she does.  The end result?  Real student learning and a future full of success.

Our Success Orientations (Trustworthiness, Responsibility, Kindness & Politeness, Independent Endeavor, Aesthetic Appreciation, Group Interaction, Concern for Others) provide students with a clear and supportive understanding in regards to character education.  Exemplary student work and behaviors are always recognized and routinely celebrated.  The well behaved child is most likely to reach–or exceed–academic expectations.

The extracurricular program at QSI Bratislava is the richest in the region.  We offer arts, academic, and athletic enrichment to all of our students, both during the day and after school.  Being a member school of Quality Schools International, QSI Bratislava is a proud member of the Central and Eastern European Schools Association (CEESA) as well as the Danube Valley Athletics Conference (DVAC).  Through these international interscholastic organizations, our students are open to rewarding competitions and memorable experiences.  Soccer, basketball, volleyball, track/field, cross-country, swimming, tennis, Mathematics Club, Model United Nations, Knowledge Bowl, and Speech and Debate are just a few of the many opportunities offered to students and families of QSI Bratislava.

Finally, our move to the new Samorin campus (January 2018) is the perfect venue to combine all of the best elements of the QSI Bratislava experience.  State-of-the-art facilities in a clean and quiet community less than 20km from the SE side of Bratislava provide the environment and the atmosphere for optimal academic, extracurricular, and personal growth.

In conclusion, please come visit us.  Our doors are always open and we welcome you to experience the QSI difference!
