13. Best Bilingual IB School 2026 – Attica will allow institutions to be more attentive. As for its own future, the next step for this bilingual IB school in Athens is to prepare for the introduction of the IB Diploma Programme next year. This is the third stage of the IB continuum, following the PYP and MYP. To accommodate the programme, DES is also expanding its secondary provision by opening a high school. These are exciting times for DES, which seeks to grow only if it can preserve the coherence and culture of care that define a school where people and their personal journeys come first. Ultimately, DES Interactive European School is built on the idea that educational excellence is both measurable and deeply relational. Authorisations, academic outcomes, and awards—such as being named Best Bilingual IB School 2026 – Attica at this year’s Hellenic Business Awards—are important, but only when they emerge from a culture of genuine excellence rather than a desire for recognition. Summing up the journey of this awardwinning bilingual school, Billie shared in closing: “DES is the story of a community seeking to reconcile qualities that are too often presented as opposites: international perspective and local identity, technological fluency and contact with nature, academic ambition and emotional safety, individual attention and social responsibility. Our recognition as Best Bilingual IB School 2026 – Attica honours that philosophy, and the educators, students, and families who bring it to life each day.” Contact: Dr Billie Konstantara Company: DES Interactive European School Web address: https://www.deschool.eu/
