Introduction

Anavryta Model Lyceum sits on the Syngrou Estate in Anavryta, a historic site previously bequeathed to support agricultural education. The school operates with a bespoke curriculum, designed to meet students' individual learning journeys. The estate's rich history includes its 1921 transfer to the Greek Agricultural Society and, in 1949–1950, the opening of the National Educational Institute of Anavryta, which housed the Experimental Gymnasium and the Model Lyceum. The first director, English educator Jocelin Winthrop-Young, led the school until 1959, and Kurt Hahn's experiential pedagogy shaped its approach. After World War II, Anavryta joined the Round Square network, reflecting a commitment to experiential learning and global citizenship. The campus and programs reflect its legacy as a pioneering center for secondary education focused on innovative methods and character development within a historic Greek setting. The school's location and signature programs offer a distinctive link between heritage and modern, student-centered education, globally available.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- For mandatory tuition: Not applicable (no tuition charged).
- For optional, chargeable items (examples below) the school or contracted providers issue individual bills or collect payments on an event-by-event basis; parents pay according to the bill/schedule announced for that specific activity (for example, deposits and a final balance for multi‑day school trips).

Boarding fees

Other costs and fees (examples parents should expect)

- School trips and multi‑day excursions: charged per participating student (price varies by trip to cover transport, accommodation, insurance, entrance fees and VAT). Parents will be asked to pay the trip cost following the school's published schedule for each trip.
- Assessment / external exam fees for International Baccalaureate assessments: if a student is registered for IB assessments, the IB charges assessment/registration fees that are billed through the school; amounts are determined by the IB and invoiced for the relevant exam session. Parents of IB candidates should expect separate exam assessment charges when applicable.
- Educational materials and supplies: standard supplies and some course materials (stationery, lab consumables, certain project materials) are typically the family's responsibility; core textbooks and official teaching books provided under national arrangements are distributed through the public-school system.
- Extracurricular or optional course fees: some voluntary clubs, trips, competitions or external activities may carry modest participation charges set per activity and communicated in advance.
- Uniforms: there is no compulsory, school‑charged uniform requirement for public day schools in Greece; therefore no uniform fee is charged by default.

Refund information

- Tuition/application refunds: Not applicable (no tuition or application fees are charged by the school).
- Refunds for specific paid items (for example e‑paravolo or paid services) follow the payment instrument's and public administration rules (e‑paravolo and similar public‑fee mechanisms have defined procedures for return/credit that require the payer's fiscal identifiers and bank details and are processed according to the relevant regulation). Parents should expect refund and cancellation terms to be set for each paid activity (for example a trip) and to be applied per the activity's published rules.

- Cash payments: may be accepted for small, activity‑specific charges if and when the school specifies; the school will publish the accepted methods for each charge.

History

The name Anavryta derives from the abundant springs in the area. The school sits on the Syngrou Estate, an archaeological site donated as a wedding gift by Andreas Syngrou to his wife, Iphigenia. In 1921 the estate was bequeathed to the Greek Agricultural Society to establish agricultural education; in 1949–1950 the National Educational Institute of Anavryta opened there, housing the Experimental Gymnasium and the Model Lyceum. The first director was English educator Jocelin Winthrop-Young until 1959; Kurt Hahn's experiential pedagogy shaped the school, which joined the Round Square network after World War II.
