WE ARE ESLj
The European School Ljubljana, the only school in Slovenia implementing the European Schools international programme, was established in January 2018 by the Government of the Republic of Slovenia. It is run as a part of the Ljubljana School Centre with 100 years of tradition.
In the 2018/2019 school year the European School Ljubljana implemented the programme in two language sections, Slovenian and English sections.
Education at the European School Ljubljana is conducted in a culturally and linguistically rich environment ensuring international recognition and a smooth transition to national education systems and other European Schools in the European Union.
A regular quality assessment performed by the national and European inspectors assures high quality schooling.
The European School Ljubljana programme is designed in a way that enables pupils a continuous schooling from the age of 6 to 18. Pupils finish education with the European Baccalaureate (EB) ensuring high standards of knowledge and enrolment to any university in the European Union.
The European School Ljubljana differs from other international schools operating in Slovenia in its in-depth learning of foreign languages. Part of our programme will be run in the pupil's first foreign language (English, French or German) already from the first year of the primary level.
The development of every pupil's potentials will be individually monitored.

OUR SCHOOL
Our school is located within Šolski Center Ljubljana. With our facilities sitting in the center of the city, our students have access to a wide array of resources, from museums and public libraries to sports facilities and public parks.
Our classrooms are clustered together in their own wing of the school. This year, renovations opened four new classrooms for our students as well as our own library. Our sports lessons and some school wide activities take place in the school’s gymnasium, and our lunch and snacks are taken inside the school’s dining room. When it comes to technology, our students have access to a mobile computer lab.
Outside the school’s walls, our students enjoy their recreation time on our playground. In case of rain or inclement weather, our students have access to a variety of games and toys for use within the classroom.
During the 2023/24 school year, the European School Ljubljana secondary classes are being held at a new location: Tržaška Cesta 118. The new location is not far from the previous one; it is just a few bus stops toward Vič along LPP Line 6.
