Why is PlusKids different?
Because at PlusKids, after-school isn't just a place where children come to do their homework.
What sets us apart is the way we work: dedicated teachers who carefully prepare special materials for the after-school activities, tailored to children's real needs.
At PlusKids it feels like school, but in a warmer, closer environment that pays attention to each child's pace.
Lessons are thoughtfully designed, explained in a way children understand and reinforced through exercises and activities that help them build their skills step by step.
We want every child to leave not just with their homework done, but with the lesson understood, with more confidence and the joy of learning.
Our values
Four principles that guide us every day alongside the children.
Discovery through play
At PlusKids, we believe play is the foundation of discovery and learning. Through interactive activities and imagined worlds, children grow their curiosity and critical thinking, exploring the world with joy while having fun.
Success through collaboration
We encourage children to collaborate, share ideas and work as a team. They learn that personal and collective success are interconnected and that, through mutual support, they can reach great goals together.
Innovation in education
We embrace modern technologies and progressive educational approaches to spark innovative thinking. We strive to make learning not only effective, but also engaging and full of inspiration.
Trust and respect
At PlusKids, every child is seen, heard and encouraged to express their opinion. Trust and respect are the pillars of our community, providing a solid foundation for each child's personal and social development.
The PlusKids team
Dedicated people, beside your child every day.

Our vision
Our vision at PlusKids is to build a place where every child feels safe, encouraged and supported to grow at their own pace.
We believe education isn't only about homework, lessons and results, but also about confidence, curiosity, friendships, discovery and the joy of learning. We want every child to discover their passions, build their skills and find the courage to try new things.
At PlusKids, children learn in a warm, modern and carefully organised environment where they are listened to, guided and motivated. We want to offer them more than an educational programme: we want to give them experiences that help them become more independent, more creative and more confident in their own abilities.
We know how important the role of parents is in children's development. That's why we want an open, ongoing collaboration with families, so that every child benefits from support both at the centre and at home.
For us, PlusKids means a community where children, parents and teachers work together towards the same goal: the harmonious development of every child.
The PlusKids mission
The PlusKids mission is to give children in their early school years a safe, friendly and well-organised educational environment where they learn with pleasure and grow beautifully.
We want every child to receive the attention and support they need. That's why our activities are designed to help children not only academically, but also in their emotional, social and personal development.
At PlusKids, we encourage children to ask questions, to explore, to be curious and to trust their own ideas. We want learning to be clear, practical and suited to their age — not just ticking off homework or lessons.
We use modern methods, suitable materials and technology where it helps children understand better. At the same time, we always keep the balance between learning, play, communication and healthy relationships.
Through everything we do, we want to prepare children for the future: to be creative, adaptable, responsible and confident that they can succeed.
