ABV Bulgarian Saturday School expands in Edinburgh

The ABV Bulgarian Saturday School in Edinburgh has experienced significant growth since its spontaneous founding. Established on September 7, 2024, following requests from parents to director Maya Tisovska, the school initially opened with 22 children. Within two years, enrollment has increased to 56 students, with additional applications pending from families currently in Bulgaria.

The school operates under the National Program ‘Native Language and Culture Abroad’ and officially joined the List of Bulgarian Sunday Schools Abroad in April 2026 by order of the Minister of Education and Science. As a legal member of the Association of Bulgarian Schools Abroad, the institution aims to provide stability and exchange pedagogical experience with other educators.
