Admission Policy

We believe the best way to get to know Maple Bear Elementary School Prague is by visiting us in person. Every family is different, and we’re here to provide all the information you need to make the right decision for your child. We warmly welcome visits with children – they can visit our classrooms, discover the school library, explore the learning center tools, or jump into free play in our school club. Experiencing the school environment firsthand helps children imagine themselves as part of our community. 

At Maple Bear, we believe that choosing a school is a deeply personal decision. That’s why we aim to create a welcoming, transparent admissions process and a supportive atmosphere where both children and parents feel at home.

Eliška Petáková

Teacher Grade 0

My name is Eliška and I am a Czech language teacher at Maple Bear School. I studied education and mathematics at the Faculty of Education. My journey in education began in the Scouts, where I led a children’s group and worked as a trainer in leadership courses. Later, I spent five years teaching in a kindergarten and also gained a lot of experience caring for children. I believe in building warm and positive relationships with children and in nurturing their natural curiosity.

In my free time, I enjoy reading, spending time with my daughter, and being with my family. I’m very happy to be part of the Maple Bear team and to accompany your children on their educational journey.
