Perrott Hill British School Prague
Formerly Meridian International School (founded 2004), rebranded in 2025 as part of the Perrott Hill Education group, with 500+ students from 60 nationalities across three campuses in Prague 8 Kobylisy. Cambridge (CAIE) accredited with IGCSE and A-Levels; BSO certified by…
In brief
A small British school in Prague that rebranded from Meridian International School after joining the UK-based Perrott Hill Education group, which also runs schools in the UK, Spain and Lithuania. EYFS through Post-16, English National Curriculum with Cambridge IGCSE and A Level.
The school is BSO and ISI accredited and sits as a Cambridge International examinations centre. Capacity is around 500 students at the upper end. The Meridian to Perrott Hill rebrand brought a UK boarding-school identity to a school that had grown organically in Prague since 2004, with the headship now under Robert Charles Ford.
Parent voice is consistently positive in tone. Families talk about happy children, friendly staff and supportive teachers, with a strong family feel that suits younger years in particular. Sample sizes are small so the signal is real but not statistically heavy. Worth a visit if you want a smaller alternative to Park Lane or PBIS rather than a full-scale international campus.

Reviews
- Newer Prague campus of an English prep brand, opened to fill the British curriculum gap between the city's larger international schools.
- Small classes are the most-cited feature: capped at 12 in Reception, 16 in Year 1, 20 from Year 2 upward.
- Parent feedback in the public forums leans positive: children described as happy, teachers experienced, atmosphere settled. No critical reports surface in current Reddit, expat.cz or parent threads.
- Diversity claim from the school , over 500 pupils from more than 50 nationalities , is repeated across directories but not independently audited.
