Olga Gudynn International School

OGIS offers three internationally recognised curricula: the Romanian National Curriculum, the Cambridge International Curriculum, and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP). The school emphasises a holistic, student-centred approach that supports academic achievement as well as personal and emotional development. In the Romanian National Curriculum, English is taught intensively from pre-school through lower secondary, and upper secondary is bilingual with several subjects taught in English within a multicultural environment. The Cambridge curriculum is structured in defined stages—Cambridge Primary (Years 1–6), Lower Secondary (Years 7–9), IGCSE (Years 10–11), and Cambridge International AS & A Levels (Years 12–13)—opening pathways to top universities worldwide.

Art, debate, and robotics are recognized through medals and awards, reflecting the school's commitment to creative and intellectual pursuits. The balanced development model blends academic knowledge with opportunities for creative expression and critical thinking. The IB DP and Cambridge pathways encourage project-based work and creative inquiry as part of a rigorous curriculum.

It is accredited by the Romanian Ministry of Education and authorised by Cambridge International Education and the International Baccalaureate for the Diploma Programme. English is taught intensively from pre-school through lower secondary, and upper secondary offers bilingual study with several subjects in English within a multicultural environment.

Co-curricular activities and personal development programmes are central to the learning experience, extending education beyond the classroom.
