Russian School of Northampton

General information

Our Russian School was established in March 2014. At present we teach 30 students who came in to UK not only from Russia but also from Ukraine, Moldova, Lithuania, Latvia, Belarus, Uzbekistan. Russian proves to be a widely spread and popular language among former Soviet Union citizens and our school is a vivid example of that.
Our students are divided into four groups in accordance with their age and abilities: 3-6 years , 6-9 years, 10-14 years . We have got one group where Russian is taught as a foreign language to those children who are mainly English speakers.
Our staff consists of 3 fully qualified teachers of the Russian language and also ESOL with an extensive academic background and years of experience. Our parent volunteers are always there to help with Math and Art. We also have got a mobile library of books including those for leisure and educational purposes.
One of the biggest achievements is our evening drama club for both children and their parents to participate in our regular performances.
Love and passion for the Russian language, culture and folk music united us all with resulted in creation of a dancing group called "Khorovod" consisting primarily of mums of our children performing Russian folk dances in national costumes.
