Bishop Konstantin Preslavski School in Burgas has been part of the local community for 50 years. Founded in 1976 in the Slaveykov neighbourhood, it now welcomes more than 1,100 pupils from Years 1 to 12. In 2026, the school celebrated its 50th anniversary.
At Preslavski, we value our traditions while continuing to find fresh ways to teach and learn. Our innovative programmes encourage pupils to make connections between subjects and put what they learn into practice. Languages are an important part of school life, with pupils able to study English, German, Russian, Spanish, Italian and Chinese.
After Year 7, pupils can choose from four vocational pathways: tour guiding, computer animation, advertising graphics and fashion design. Alongside their general education, they develop practical skills for careers in tourism, technology and the creative industries.
There is plenty of room to explore new interests. Our facilities include the Leonardo da Vinci STEM Centre for science and robotics, digital classrooms, the Iliya Shurelov Centre for Arts and Innovation, a library, an assembly hall, a swimming pool, two sports halls and a football pitch. Pupils take part in academic competitions, sport, the arts, community initiatives and educational projects.
Above all, we want every pupil to feel that they belong. We aim to give each child the support and encouragement to discover what they enjoy and pursue their ambitions. Our motto says it simply: “Feel at home.”
