There is a ‘cart’ of laptops available for the children to use to support their learning. Each classroom has an Interactive Whiteboard and text scanner, kindly provided by our PTA. The completed building includes twelve classrooms, each around 60m2, with air conditioning, good natural light, wooden floors and a high quality of finish. Originally built in 1954, the building that most casual passers-by think of, ‘The building with the Arch’, has recently been renovated to a high specification. The School has a single site in a magnificent location in the heart of Nicosia, nestled amongst Government Ministries, The Presidential Palace and Ayios Demetrios Park.

Though electives are not compulsory students are encouraged to participate in them. Students choose electives according to their perceived abilities and talents. An Elective is an additional course which is not compulsory, thus not needed for graduation. Many high schools offer a wide variety of Elective courses, although the availability of such courses depends upon each particular school’s financial resources and desired curriculum emphases. Foreign language and some form of art education are also a mandatory part of the curriculum in some schools. In many cases, however, options are provided for students to “test out” or perform independent study in order to complete this requirement. Anti-drug use programs are also usually part of health courses. Many states require a “health” course in which students learn about anatomy, nutrition, first aid, sexuality, and birth control.
