EPOHA Private Primary School and Gymnasium

Primary entry and transfers into Epoha

First-year primary and secondary applicants use the relevant enrolment system and must also send a request to the school. Transfers into primary Years 2–8 or secondary Years 2–4 begin with an email enquiry. For 2026/27, the school advertises 16 first-year places on its four-year language-gymnasium programme.

Language and learning support

The gymnasium page describes general and language-focused programmes for ages 14–18. Teaching uses practical experience, discussion and work on emotional and social skills. This age range concerns the gymnasium; the school also has primary provision, whose exact youngest entry age should be confirmed separately.

Croatian schooling with Waldorf-inspired methods

EPOHA combines a private primary school and gymnasium in Podsused, Zagreb. The primary school follows the Croatian state programme and describes its teaching as Waldorf-inspired. Pupils study topics in blocks lasting three to four weeks, with notebooks, practical activities and emotional education forming part of the approach.

The gymnasium page describes general and language-focused curricula enriched by alternative pedagogical methods. This profile therefore represents a different option from an English-medium IB or Cambridge school. Families should confirm the teaching language, available class groups and transfer requirements directly. Older enrolment notices remain on the primary-school page, so they should not be read as a current list of places.

Learning and qualifications

EPOHA follows the Croatian national programme using teaching methods inspired by Waldorf education. In primary school, one class teacher accompanies pupils through Grades 1–4. Topics may be studied in focused blocks lasting three or four weeks. This describes the teaching method, not a separate international qualification.

Tuition and additional costs to clarify

The admissions page lists €5,800 tuition in ten instalments, a €200 enrolment fee and a 10% second-child discount. Meals, personal supplies and study travel are excluded. The fee paragraph does not separately label its academic year and contains unclear wording about teaching costs, so request a written itemised quotation.
