Here’s a summary of Akademeia High School (AHS) in Warsaw, Poland — a highly selective British-international school aimed at preparing students for top universities.

Key Facts & Overview

• Akademeia High School is located in Warsaw, Poland. 

• It offers a British‐style curriculum: IGCSEs (usually Years 10–11) followed by A-Levels (Years 12–13). 

• The school is academically selective and positions itself as a pre-university model, with many students heading to leading universities around the world. 

• It is part of the International Schools Partnership (ISP) network (as of January 2024) which adds a global link to its operations. 

Curriculum, Results & University Destinations

• At IGCSE level: A very strong performance — e.g., “64% of IGCSE students achieved 9-8/A*” and “80% achieved 9-7/A*-A”. 

• At A-Level: Among 2019-2025 cohorts, about “40% A*”, “71% A*-A” and “88% A*-B”. 

• University matches: In 2024, out of 76 graduates, 91% of UK university applicants received offers from top 20 UK universities or top 10 programmes.

Facilities & Student Experience

• The school describes itself as offering the “Fifth Form” (Years 9–11) and “Sixth Form” (Years 12–13) with tailored pathways and mentoring for each student. 

• It emphasises “personal development”, mentoring, well-being, and co-curricular programmes as part of its offer, not just academics.

• Being in Warsaw, the school sits in an international city with access to cultural, academic and EU-region resources (though specific details of labs, sports etc are less prominent in the sources I found).

Strengths & Considerations

Strengths:

• Excellent academic outcomes and university progression track record.

• Focused on preparing students for competitive global university admissions.

• A strong international accreditation footprint (including British Schools Overseas, COBIS) as noted in job adverts. 

• Scholarships available (approx ~10% of students) for academic/artistic merit. 

Considerations:

• Being highly selective means the school is likely demanding; students and families should expect a rigorous academic environment.

• As a more niche school (relatively smaller enrolment) in Poland, the breadth of activities, size of peer-group etc may differ from larger international schools elsewhere.

• Fees are on the higher end for Poland international schools: e.g., 2025-26 fees for Year 10/11 are around PLN 150,400 annually. 

Summary

Akademeia High School is a strong choice for families seeking a serious British‐curriculum, university-preparation environment in Europe (Poland). It offers excellent results, an international outlook, and pathways to top global universities. If you’re exploring this school, I’d recommend visiting the campus, speaking directly with current students/parents about culture and fit, and comparing it with other British/IB schools in the region to ensure the environment aligns with your child’s needs.
