Fostra Elementary

Bilingual Czech-English elementary school that opened in Žižkov in September 2025, run by the same Fostra group behind Gymnázium Fostra and led by Jan Voda, the Czech Primary Principal of the Year 2024.

Two teachers per classroom, a Czech teacher and a native English speaker, with around half of instruction in English. The model is project-based learning across small classes in a renovated historic Žižkov building. Tuition for 2025/26 sits at CZK 179,000 a year and includes materials. Family fit is for Prague-based parents who want a fully bilingual primary without committing to a fully English-medium international track yet.

The school is too new for an established parent voice. The signal that exists points at Voda's reputation in the Czech sector and at the same teaching philosophy that has built a following at Fostra's grammar school. Worth visiting and asking how the bilingual ratio actually plays out by Grade 3, since young schools often drift on that point in the first years.
