Aleksandra
Grade 1 and 5
Our family has experienced various schools in Spain (British system), as well as private schools in Kharkiv and Kyiv (Ukraine), and I can confidently say that...
Pechersk School International (PSI) is the best educational institution we have encountered!
The atmosphere in which our children learn combines freedom of self-expression with high academic standards.
Julia
Grade 5
Pechersk School International was one of the reasons we came back to Ukraine.
Even during air-raid alerts, I am totally relaxed when my daughter is at the school.
Tetiana

It's a great school! The quality of teaching, the quality of learning, and their values.
We have been to several private schools, but at Pechersk School International you feel the difference and understand what modern education should really be like.

Admissions Policy
PSI is an inclusive, diverse, non-discriminatory international school. The admission process is guided by PSI’s Core Values, School Parameters and Mission and Vision Statements.
PSI sees students as individuals and considers their ability to succeed in the school environment in terms of the school’s capacity to support them and enable them to reach their fullest potential. Please find below information relevant to the application process.
How does PSI determine which year group my child will be placed in?
Student class placement is determined by the principal and includes the age of the student and their educational grade level history, previous school reports, and results of admissions or other testing.
Some students may need to undergo additional educational testing to determine their English language skills and grade placement.
The chart may help you understand how grade-level placement works.
