Townshend International School is a co-educational English residential and day school, accredited by the Czech Ministry of Education. Located opposite Hluboka castle in beautiful South Bohemia, Townshend offers courses leading to Cambridge Assessment International Education IGCSE and A Levels. Class sizes are small, offering a high staff to student ratio, and run from Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 13 (A Levels).
The boarding programme provides a supportive cross-cultural environment and emphasises the development of qualities such as social skills, time management, ethical values, leadership, and spirituality. We seek to create a family environment where students can find brothers and sisters who help them grow during their time at Townshend and become life-long friends.
A diverse range of co-curricular activities provides a holistic and balanced education through which students develop various skills, participate in sports, gain service experience, and engage in personal development. Our programme encourages regular participation in activities, allowing students to gain experience in new areas, adding balance to their lives, and broadening their horizons.
With a world-embracing outlook, Townshend strives to continuously excel in all standards and adapt itself to the needs of a global society and an ever advancing civilisation. Our academic strengths are grounded in social responsibility and a commitment to cultural and intellectual diversity.
