Welcome

A place where children are proud to be Bulgarian

Azbukarche is the first Bulgarian school in Glasgow. We opened in 2018 as a pre-school playgroup, and today we teach pupils from the preparatory year through to grade XII — in person in Glasgow and online across Scotland and the UK.

Beyond language lessons, Saturdays at Azbukarche mean Bulgarian culture, holidays, folk dance and friendships — a small Bulgaria in the heart of Glasgow.

Teaching follows the curricula approved by the Bulgarian Ministry of Education and Science for Bulgarian schools abroad. The school is approved under Decree № 90 for the 2026/2027 school year.
