A state public school in Moscow with seven specialised pre-professional tracks — from engineering and IT to medicine, media, and cadet programmes. Two campuses, more than a century of educational tradition, and modern technology classrooms in every building.
Every pre-professional class is built together with leading Moscow universities, hospitals, and tech companies, so students leave with hands-on experience and an early head start.
Civic service track with military-style discipline, sport, and history of the Russian Armed Forces.
Robotics, CAD, applied physics and mathematics with university lab visits.
Programming, web development, data science basics, partner-led capstone projects.
Biology, chemistry, anatomy, and shadowing days at partner Moscow clinics.
Economics, finance literacy, business communication, and student startup projects.
Journalism, video production, design, and a working student newsroom.

Cross-cutting digital curriculum recognised by the Moscow Department of Education.
