The International Trilingual School of Warsaw (ITSW) Karowa Campus is located in Warsaw’s historic center, near the Copernicus Science Centre. The school operates a trilingual immersion model where students receive instruction in English, Polish, and a third elective language—French, Spanish, or Chinese. The curriculum integrates the British National Curriculum and the Polish Ministry of Education standards, with certain tracks incorporating American and French educational components. Students rotate through different languages on specific days of the week, learning core subjects like mathematics and science from native speakers in multiple languages. The Karowa facility features dedicated spaces for music and art, utilizing its proximity to the University of Warsaw library gardens for outdoor learning. A unique feature is the "simultaneous trilingualism" program, which ensures children achieve literacy and numeracy in three languages concurrently, rather than learning additional languages as isolated subjects. This approach is supported by a multicultural teaching staff representing over fifteen nationalities.
