Leonardo da Vinci Academy of

Prague

International institute for renaissance of education Leonardo da Vinci Academy is inspired by democratic education systems and prepares students for international school studies in English. At the same time provides an option for extended Czech program and other foreign language programs. The name Leonardo da Vinci was selected to best define and characterize our free "Renaissance" school. Maestro da Vinci became famous as a versatile Renaissance figure: in addition to being a great painter, he was also a sculptor, architect, naturalist, musician, writer, inventor and designer. He also played an important role in emphasizing animal rights, which probably was related to his preference for a vegetarian diet. Nowadays, sustainability and an ecological approach to our planet are big trends. While we do not have to be inventors, we should strive to understand nature, the role of mankind in it and related social responsibility. This is connected with a general cultural outlook and holistic approach.
