Doukas School (????????????? ?????)

Alongside the Greek Lyceum, students can follow several international pathways from the first year of senior high. The IB Diploma Programme, taught in English, covers six subjects plus Theory of Knowledge, the Extended Essay and CAS, with a Pre-IB year to help students decide. Pearson International A Levels are offered in engineering, economics, psychology and art streams, on campus or online. The BTEC Foundation in Art, Design and Media Practice, run since 2008 with UAL and Istituto Marangoni partnerships, prepares students for art schools abroad, and a US Dual Diploma with Columbia School adds an American high school diploma.

Greek is the main language of teaching. The pre-school runs a bilingual Greek and English programme, and English is taught daily at every level, with native-speaker classes, ability groups and CLIL lessons in subjects such as music and digital skills; the IB is taught in English. French or German is added as a second foreign language from Grade 3, and the school is a Cambridge English exam centre. Spanish and Chinese are offered as afternoon clubs, and Italian ab initio is available in the IB.

The school covers bilingual pre-kindergarten and kindergarten from age 3, a six-year primary school, a three-year junior high (Gymnasio) and a three-year senior high (Lyceum) that prepares students for the Greek Panhellenic exams. From the first year of senior high, students can switch to or combine international pathways: the IB Diploma, International A Levels, the BTEC art foundation or the US Dual Diploma.

Doukas School aims to keep improving the quality of its education and to go beyond what pupils, parents and society expect. Its vision is to form global citizens with a strong Greek identity, giving them 21st-century skills while respecting each child's individuality. The school balances tradition and progress, combining a long history with innovation, sustainability through the UN Global Schools Program, social responsibility and a strong focus on wellbeing.

An afternoon programme runs every day after lessons. Sports options include tennis, basketball, karate, swimming, volleyball, five-a-side football, rhythmic and artistic gymnastics, athletics, handball and ISTD dance, while primary clubs introduce fencing, shooting and baseball, and Saturday adventure outings offer sailing, riding and climbing. Creative and academic choices cover theatre, art, choir and orchestra, instrument lessons, music technology and DJing, coding and robotics, debate, Model United Nations, a maths club, cookery, journalism, and Spanish or Chinese. School teams compete in private-school and national championships.

The Marousi campus covers more than 23,000 m² of buildings with classrooms equipped for one-to-one computing, science laboratories, a library and a theatre. Sports facilities include indoor and outdoor courts for basketball, volleyball, handball and five-a-side football, a heated indoor swimming pool, a tartan athletics track, gym, dance and aerobics rooms and an ergometric testing centre. There is also a medical room, a children's playground and a herb garden used for the Green Days environmental programme, and buses serve the whole of Attica.

Students travel on school-owned and contracted buses with trained drivers and escorts across Attica. Meals are served in the school canteen and restaurant under the D-Well nutrition programme, and a first-aid station is staffed by nurses. A psycho-pedagogical department with psychologists for each stage screens and supports learning difficulties, a careers department advises older students, and personal mentors follow each pupil. The school awards exam-based scholarships, runs a summer camp for ages 3 to 17 and requires a daily sports uniform.
