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.
