Frequently asked questions
What language is used for educational instruction?
Education at the KD International School is conducted in two languages: one teacher works according to the general programs of Primary education, the English-speaker works according to the Cambridge Primary program.
My child ONLY knows Lithuanian (or English), is this school suitable for them?
Yes, a child can join the KD International School community without knowing English or Lithuanian.
Do children receive homework?
Homework is not part of the learning process in our primary school, but occasionally children may be asked to complete projects that might take more time or need parent involvement at home. For example: constructing a robot, drawing a family tree, etc.
We always recommend setting aside time for reading at home (at least 15 minutes a day).
Are children forced to learn?
At Katino Dienelės, we believe that the desire and motivation for learning have to come from within each child. We empower each child to take responsibility for their education through careful guidance from professional pedagogues who cater lessons to each child’s abilities in a purposefully prepared environment with the use of contextual education that encourage the child’s curiosity and understanding of topics from different perspectives.
How long do lessons last?
The duration of the lesson is 35 minutes in the 1st grade and 45 minutes from the 2nd grade, but we do not have a bell in the school: the time of the lesson is regulated by the teachers, taking into account the children's involvement, fatigue and needs.

What will my child eat?
Healthy food – healthy body – healthy soul.
Well balanced eating habits are essential for the health of a child. Children's moods, behaviour, concentration, attention, and, most importantly, physical, and mental health, depend on the food that they eat.
Our nutritional program is created by specialists to make sure children are eating a wide variety of foods with the nutrients essential for health. The food at our school is catered by UAB “Desertas”, later – “Confetti.” A company renowned for providing fresh, healthy, nutritious food.
If your child has special or extraordinary needs, we will make an individual menu for your child.
