As we embark on an exciting new chapter, we proudly announce that Meridian International School has become Perrott Hill British School, Prague. This transformation marks a significant milestone in our school’s journey, aligning us with the esteemed Perrott Hill Education group, enabling us to further enhance our educational offerings while preserving the unique identity that has made our school exceptional for over two decades.

Our Legacy & Growth

Founded in 2004, our school has grown from a modest establishment with a few dozen students into a thriving international institution. Over the years, we have achieved some remarkable milestones:

  • Accreditation by the Czech Ministry of Education as a recognized international school
  • Becoming an Authorised Cambridge English Examination Centre
  • Being regularly inspected against UK school standards and thereby certified as a British School Overseas by the UK Department for Education
  • Expanded into a dynamic learning community with over 80 qualified teaching staff members, 500+ students from 60 nationalities, and an engaged network of 800 parents across our three campuses in Prague 8.

Through dedication, excellence, and a student-centered approach, we have cultivated a unique atmosphere where international education thrives under devoted pastoral care.

A New Era with Perrott Hill Group

Joining the Perrott Hill Education group signifies an exciting new phase in our commitment to academic excellence. As a part of this prestigious group, we are integrating world-class educational standards and a holistic curriculum while maintaining our core values. Some key advantages of this transition include:

  • Integration into a Collaborative Network: The school will become part of a wider group of schools that work together strategically, fostering a culture of shared learning and development.
  • Enhanced Staff Development & Resource Sharing: Teachers and staff will benefit from access to a broader pool of expertise, educational resources, and best practices, strengthening both teaching and pastoral support.
  • Opportunities for Professional Exchange: Collaboration with colleagues across the group will enable staff to share their own experiences while gaining insights from diverse educational approaches.
  • Expanded Student Opportunities: Students will have access to unique academic and extracurricular programs, including cross-school projects and potential exchange initiatives.
  • Participation in Global Learning Experiences: Initially, students will have the opportunity to join the summer school at Perrott Hill in the UK, with further international learning experiences to follow.

Looking Ahead to 2025

As we move forward, Perrott Hill British School, Prague (PHBS) will continue to build on the strong foundation established by Meridian International School. With an unwavering commitment to fostering intellectual curiosity, personal growth, and global citizenship, we are excited to lead our students into a bright and promising future.
