 WHAT ABOUT THE SCHOOL SYSTEM AND STUDIES?📑📕📚🏠🙋



In the Czech Republic school attendance is of course a legal requirement as well as the last year of nursery school is compulsory. Parents are also obliged to enroll the child into a school or nursery in advance (in April and May for the next school year). Every primary school has its local catchment area. This means that if your permanent address falls within this catchment area, then the given primary school is obliged to enroll your child into the first year. Read more here: 

What if you end late at work and you have no chance to pick your child up after the school finishes? There is an after-school club (družina) a school facility that children can attend after regular lessons. In the club, the children are supervised by teaching staff and can expand their out-of-school activities. These clubs are paid for, the usual fee being around 50–100 CZK per month. Also, leisure activities for children are offered by schools and various organisations such as for example recreational centres or other educational facilities. We recommend you to check Family Points which hold regular events for the public, meetings, lectures and workshops: https://brno.familypoint.cz/. Events for families with children are also organised by Vicinis www.vicinis.cz (RU, EN). More you can find here: www.brnoexpatcentre.eu/im-an-expat/leisure-for-kids/ or https://metaops.eu/what-are-we-doing-who-do-we-help/

Generally, the study is for free but there are also private schools and Universities which you pay for. There are about 10 Universities in Brno but the most famous public universities in Brno are: Masarykova univerzita, Vysoké učení technické and Mendelova univerzita. So in case you are a student here, we recommend you to check the Students networks:

Meet Brno - December Sunday in nature

In the project Meet Brno in Brno for you, we decided to show newcomers in Brno beautiful nature. On December 20, we met the participants at the last bus stop to Mariánské údolí. We headed in the direction of Jeníkův mlýn. During the walk we got to know each other and talked about different topics. We discussed what we can do in Brno and also what non-profits we can participate in as volunteers. There was also talk about personal development, the participants even shared with us their intentions for business. We have created a group on Facebook, which is intended for newcomers in Brno.
