Parent Experience

History

Stembridge School was founded in Minsk in spring 2018 by educators who wanted an alternative space focused on individualized learning paths and future-oriented skills. In 2021, a Vilnius campus opened as the first element of its international network. By the end of 2022, Minsk private schools were closed by Belarusian authorities, while the Vilnius campus supported students and teachers affected by the war in Ukraine, maintaining a safe and supportive community. In 2024, the school moved to a larger campus at Nemenčinės pl. 48 in Vilnius and received accreditation from Cambridge International Education, offering education in English, Russian, and Lithuanian by combining Lithuanian national programmes with Cambridge International programmes. From 2024, primary school classes are bilingual with instruction in Russian and English using a team-teaching system, where two teachers are always present: one Russian-speaking and one English-speaking, and Stembridge School is an approved Cambridge International School, offering Cambridge Primary and Lower Secondary programmes for ages 5 to 14.

Community

Stembridge School positions itself as a bilingual space that helps children integrate into the European educational system while preserving cultural identity. An important part of the school's mission is supporting families relocated from Belarus, Ukraine, and Russia, helping them adapt to life and education in Lithuania and the European Union while preserving languages and cultural roots. In 2022, the Vilnius campus supported students and teachers affected by the war in Ukraine, continuing its safe and supportive community. In 2024, the school moved to a larger campus in Vilnius, began bilingual Primary School classes (Russian-English) using a team-teaching model, and received Cambridge International accreditation while offering education in English, Russian, and Lithuanian.
