In June of this year, the girls won the European Trophy for Women as their 6th different title. No club in history has won so many different competitions. Before his entering to professional sport, the students of our school were 18 times Croatian high school champions (9 times boys and 9 times girls), double European High School champions in 2007, and twice played in the final of the World High School Championship (2010 boys and 2012 girls) and the girls were third in the world in 2010.

At privatna gimnazija Dr. Časl we are proud to have a modern library that contains a range of educational resources to boost student's interest in research and reading. As a Cambridge International School, students are taught to be responsible and to utilise independent study skills which are endorsed in our library. With hundreds of titles from a range of genres, subjects and areas of interest, students at Privatna gimnazija Dr. Časl who follow the Cambridge International Education IGCSE, AS & A level programme can truly value what it means to have a library at their school. Reading lights up your entire brain. A 2013 study by Emory University measured readers' MRI scans as they read a book. They found that the deeper readers went into the story, the more areas of their brain were activated. Even more surprisingly, this activity stayed elevated for several days after participants finished the book. The more you read, the stronger these complex networks of activity become.

Learning is interesting and builds curiosity. Our students at Privatna gimnazija Dr. Časl develop skills that are essential for lifelong learning. Lifelong learning is important for an individual's competitiveness and employability, but also enhances social inclusion, active citizenship, and personal development. The emergence of internet technologies has great potential to support lifelong learning endeavors, allowing for informal day-to-day learning. Please check our new video.
