Why families choose Riverside

A clear approach to learning

We will explain the curriculum, subjects and teaching languages for the chosen stage, and show how English is used for learning and communication within the programme appropriate to your child.

A small school where your child is known

In a small class, teachers can notice questions, explain tasks and see where support is needed. Meet the team and discuss your child’s interests and learning needs.

A school created by parents

Riverside began with a wish to create a school where our own children would feel comfortable learning. That is why we value small classes, attentive teachers and an environment where children can ask questions, try new things and learn from mistakes.

Novogorsk: space for learning and movement

Riverside School is located in Novogorsk, close to Kurkino and Khimki. Families come to Riverside from Gavrilkovo, the Edem and Olympic Village Novogorsk residential complexes, Severnoye Tushino, the Molzhaninovsky district, north-west Moscow and other neighbouring areas. If you live further away, please get in touch — we’ll help you plan a convenient route and tell you about Riverside’s programmes.

Novogorsk’s green surroundings, a swimming pool and a tennis court are reasons to see Riverside for yourself. Ask about the sports timetable and what your programme includes.
