Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely. Xenion Junior is fully licensed and recognised by the Ministry of Education and the opening ceremony was conducted by the Minister of Education in 2014. Highly qualified, experienced teachers are employed, many of whom have remained at the school since its opening. The school has rigorous safeguarding procedures in place.

We currently have a limit of 22 children per class, so it is important to contact the school with your child’s details to ensure that they are placed in the correct year group and that there is a place available.

A basic level of English is desirable.

We request that children being placed into Years 3-6 take entrance examinations in Mathematics, English (and Greek) if this is their native language. An informal discussion forms the entry assessment for younger children who will be entering into Pre-school 1 and 2 and years 1 and 2 to find out their interests and to gauge their level of understanding.

Yes of course! Children are placed in year groups according to their age, with Pre-school 1 beginning at 3 years and 8 months from September 1st. Please contact the school to confirm age requirements for other year groups. We also accept children throughout the year.

Although we do not have the facilities to cater for children with severe disabilities, we will consider cases on an individual basis and will look at reports from other agencies as well as previous schools, prior to decisions being made.

We are a bilingual school where lessons are taught in both Greek and English. English and Greek lessons are also taught separately to help support the student’s linguistic development.

At Xenion Junior we ensure that children leave our school as independent learners with a positive work ethic. Children develop life skills which will allow them to progress into secondary education with confidence.

Children spend an orientation day at Xenion High School. During this time, they become familiar with the site, teachers, lessons and structure of the day. In addition, High School facilities are regularly used by Junior School children for Clubs, Sports Days and other events.
