The conference will be held in Washington and New York during the summer of 2012. The fundamental idea of this event, which gathers merited and motivated students from all around the world, is the development of firm leadership capabilities, confidence, independence and social commitment. Participants in the GYLC sessions develop skills, such as critical thinking and practical knowledge for decision making and problem solving, which may be successfully applied in real and academic life. Students return home from GYLC with a greater understanding of their roles and responsibilities as citizens and future leaders in an international community, having exchanged ideas with some of the most distinguished politicians, journalists, diplomats and university lecturers.
In 2011 Evgenia Nestorova (Class 2012), Stefan Deskov (Class 2012), Mark Apostolov (Class 2012), Michaela Petrova (Class 2012) and Boyan Dinev (Class 2013) represented Bulgaria at the 12-day session in Washington and New York.

This year we look forward our teams to dignify Zlatarski International School at the Regional, City and National Championships.At the opening ceremony were present representatives of the Ministry of Sport, Ministry of Education, Youth and Science, Bulgarian Olympic Committee, National federations, National Sports Academy, Bulgarian Sport Association, Sofia Municipal Council, mayors of district administration, heads and teachers of educational institutions in Sofia. The deputy mayor of Sofia Council, Mr Lyubomir Hristov, was a special guest at the opening of the School Games 2011-2012 and he, on behalf of the Mayor of Sofia Mrs Yordanka Fandakova, congratulated the awarded teachers. The teachers were also greeted by the vice-minister of sport Ivan Cenov.
През ноември 2011 година Международна гимназия „Проф. д-р Васил Златарски” получи статут на Cambridge International School – международно училище, асоциирано към University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE). Гимназия Златарски е единственото училище в България, което e акредитирано от двете най-големи образователни организации в света – Организацията на Международния Бакалауреат (International Baccalaureate Organisation) и Изпитния отдел към Университета Кеймбридж. От 2003г. училището има статут на International Baccalaureate World School, a преди две години гимназията получи и статут на международен изпитен център към Университета Кеймбридж. Това позволи на Гимназия Златарски да разшири образователните перспективи пред учениците в България, като им предложи освен вече утвърдената си International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme и британските програми Pre-IGCSE (8 клас), IGCSE (9 и 10 клас) и A-Levels (11 и 12 клас).
Отделът за международни изпити на Университета Кеймбридж (CIE) е най-голямата организация в света, предлагаща международни квалификации за ученици в гимназиална възраст (14-18 години). 150 държави приемат квалификациите на Кеймбридж, които са признати от най-престижните университети и работодатели в света. Г-жа Цветана Кардашева, Директор на училището, сподели: „Гимназия Златарски е горда, че е асоциирана към Кеймбридж със статут на Cambridge International School, защото това ни дава възможност да предложим качествено международно образование за учениците в България”. „Изключително сме щастливи, че Международна гимназия Златарски – София е оторизиран център от Кеймбридж и се надявам, че нашето сътрудничество ще бъде дълго и ефективно”, каза Ан Пънтис, Изпълнителен директор на Отдела за международни изпити на Университета Кеймбридж.
В периода 12 октомври – 18 ноември 2011г. в училището се проведоха официалните британски изпити IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education). IGCSE e академична програма за средно образование, в която се обучават ученици от 8 до 10 клас във Великобритания, както и в множество международни училища по цял свят. Гимназия Златарски обучава по британските програми и е център за полагане на изпитите в България. Успешното полагане на IGCSE изпитите в края на 10 клас се оценява високо от приемните комисии в престижните университети като удостоверява готовност за успешно обучение по международни стандарти. Интегрирана в курса на английска езикова гимназия, програмата IGCSE подготвя учениците за обучението им в международната програма International Baccalaureate в 11 и 12 клас.
Благодарение на високата резултатност, организираната от училището подготовка за кандидатстване в елитните британски университети и фактът, че успоредно с международната диплома, учениците завършват и с българска диплома на английска гимназия, училището се ползва с нужната репутация сред приемните комисии в най-труднодостъпните университети. Анджела Хейууд, Координатор прием на студенти към London School of Economics, сподели след визитата си в училището през октомври 2011г., “За нас е удоволствие за пореден път да посетим Гимназия Златарски и се надяваме все повече български ученици да кандидатстват в LSE”. През 2011 г. LSE прие ученици на Гимназия Златарски в специалностите Счетоводство, Финанси и Човешки ресурси. На 2 ноември 2011г. в училището се проведоха и приемните изпити за Оксфорд и Кеймбридж.
„Да инвестираш в доброто образование на своите деца е една от най-хубавите инвестиции, които могат да бъдат направени. Най-ценното в Гимназия Златарски е това, че въвежда в българското средно образование признати и високи международни стандарти, като дава възможност българските деца да придобиват не само знания, но и умения за общуване, съпоставими с връстниците им от Европа и целия свят”, коментира журналистът Петко Георгиев, чиято дъщеря е възпитаничка на гимназията.
Статутът на Cambridge International School и International Baccalaureate World School означава, че учебният процес в Гимназия Златарски се регулира и оценява от международни изпитни комисии. Преподавателите получават квалификации в чужбина. Освен интензивната подготовка по английски език учениците на гимназията преминават обучение на английски език по природни, обществени науки и математика с учебници и обучителни системи на Oxford и Cambridge University. Програмата включва и обучение от native speakers. Училището е включено в единна информационна електронна мрежа и квалификационни форми. Завършилите училището продължават образованието си в университетите: Oxford University, St Andrews University, Warwick University, King’s College London, University College London, London School of Economics, Queen Mary, University of York, Durham University, Exeter University, University of Leeds, Manchester University, Bath University, Utrecht University, University of Amsterdam, Erasmus University Rotterdam и др.
„Дължа успеваемостта си на подготовката в училище. Научиха ме да бъда себе си, научиха ме, че старанието в крайна сметка се възнаграждава,” споделя Надежда Величкова, студентка по политология в престижния Warwick University, завършила Гимназия Златарски с отлична международна IB диплома. Освен че въвежда International Baccalaureate в България през 2003г, Гимназия Златарски бележи и най-високите резултати в държавата ни на международните изпити. През юни 2011г. възпитаникът на гимназията Иван Дамгов постигна рекордните 44 точки (от максимални 45) на IB изпитите. Тази успеваемост нарежда Гимназия Златарски сред най-добрите международни училища по света.

Making the Most of a College Fair
College Fairs can be great opportunities to get more information about colleges that interest you and to discover schools you may not have considered. However, getting the most from a college fair takes a little planning ahead. If you are just beginning the college search process, it is also a great time to pick up informational materials from lots of schools. Depending on how large the fair is, it might not be the best time to have an in-depth conversation with a college rep about whether or not that school is the right fit for you. But it can be a great time to get any questions you have answered.
Do your homework
Before the fair, get a list of colleges attending. Write down any questions that come out of your research or that you want answered by every college. Decide which are the most important questions, so that you will ask those first.
Ask questions
It can be intimidating for some students to ask questions of the college representative, but keeping quiet will not get you the information you need. Regarding questions – it’s true that there is no such thing as a stupid question. However, there are some questions, which garner lots of interesting information and other questions which may produce less beneficial answers. For example: “Can you tell me more about your Program in Liberal Medical Education?” is a fine question. A more productive question might be, “What is the application process to the PLME program?” or “What is the philosophy of the PLME program? “. Basically, the more specific your question, the more specific our answer and the more satisfied you ultimately feel about the information you receive. When I am asked a very general question, I usually have to flesh out what information the student is actually looking for. But unfortunately, admission officers are not mind readers. So the interaction will probably be more positive for you if you get specific.
Follow up
When you get home, look through the information you have collected, including the answers to your questions. Thumb through everything and see what you think. Ask yourself, “Does this information answer what I need to know?” If is does not, give the representatives a call or email. This is the whole purpose of a college fair: to get you in contact with colleges that may be right for you, even if they were not on your original list. If a school sparks your interest, find out more!

The annual International Baccalaureate Viva Voce took place at Zlatarski School on the 11th of October and was attended and well received by students and staff alike.
As with every year the 12th grade students have to give a presentation which aims to justify the Extended Essay topics they have chosen to do. The event was attended not only by the 12th graders, also many of the 11th grade students were part of the audience.
All of the presentations were of a high quality however some of the ‘standout’ ones were presented by Vassil Ivanov who presented on Hitler’s relationship with his top Generals and Ekaterina who did an interesting piece on the 
cultural relevance of the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright.
Over the whole event was a huge success which built on the very successful first Viva last year. Congratulations to all students who took part.
Education in integrated international programmes International Baccalaureate, Pre-IGCSE and IGCSE for students from grades 8 to 12
In the period 12 October – 18 November 2011 at Zlatarski International School will take place the official British exams IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education). IGCSE is an academic programme for secondary education, designed for students in grades 8 to 10 in the United Kingdom as well as in many international schools across the world. Zlatarski School teaches the programme and is an authorised centre for sitting the exams in Bulgaria. Integrated in the programme of an English language school, the IGCSE programme prepares students for their successful progression in the International Baccalaureate/A-level programme in grades 11 and 12.
Founded in 1995, Zlatarski International School is the only school in Bulgaria, which teaches the international programmes Pre-IGCSE (8 grade), IGCSE (9 and 10 grade) and International Baccalaureate/A-level (11 and 12 grade) to Bulgarian and international students. The school curriculum integrates the international standards to the Bulgarian national curriculum. After introducing the International Baccalaureate in 2003, Zlatarski School marks the highest results achieved by Bulgarian students in the international baccalaureate examinations.
„Zlatarski School not only introduced the International Baccalaureate for the first time in Bulgaria 12 years ago, but it also achieved extremely high results. The continuously achieved 40-44 points (max 45) in the IB Diplomas are a sign of high quality education according to international standards. This makes it possible for a large number of our students to be admitted to the top 10 British universities.”, commends Tsvetana Kardasheva, Director.
Therefore, more parents choose Zlatarski School for pre-university education instead of sending their children abroad for the same qualifications. The reasons – the excellent results, which satisfy the requirements of the most selective universities; the organised by the school preparation for university applications; and the fact that in parallel to achieving the international diploma, students also gain the Bulgarian diploma of an English language school. “The most significant benefit of students achieving their international secondary education close to their families, here in Bulgaria, is the family atmosphere, which creates the feeling of security and comfort, the existence of parental control and clear rules”, comments the school counselor Anna Joukivskaya.
As early as grade 8 students are enrolled in the Pre-IGCSE programme, which is an excellent preparation for the IGCSE education (9 and 10 grades). Besides the intensive preparation in English, students of Zlatarski School are also taught in English in the Sciences, Social sciences and Mathematics with textbooks from Cambridge University Press. The programme includes tuition by native speakers. Students are prepared for exams in English, Mathematics, History, Biology and Physics. The successful results in IGCSE exams after grade 10 is highly respected by university admissions committees. Tution fees at the school are on average 3500 euro per year, while the same tuition costs around 20 000 pounds in the United Kindom, while in Switzerland tuition fees vary between 54 and 100 000 Swiss francs.
Zlatarski School graduates are accepted at Oxford University, St Andrews University, Warwick University, London School of Economics, King`s College, University College London, Queen Mary, University of Leeds, York, Exeter, in programmes such as Economics, Finance, Law, Architecture, Computer Science, Interior Design. „Our school marks record results in the International Baccalaureate. With the Pre-IGCSE and IGCSE tuition our students in grades 8, 9 and 10 receive the required preparation, and the standardized tests allow them to compare their knowledge with students in the UK”, comments Daniel Parsons, teacher of History at Zlatarski School.

“Приетa съм в London School of Economics (LSE) и ще уча финанси и счетоводство. Това, че учих IB икономика в училище много ми помогна. Кандидатствах през UCAS центъра на моето училище. Постигнах International Baccalaureate диплома с 40 точки. Решаващи за моя успех бяха средата в училище и препоръките на Гимназия Златарски. Чувствам се достатъчно подготвена. Мечтата ми е реалност, вече съм студентка в LSE”, щастливa е Елица Манова, завършилa с две отлични дипломи – българска и международна IB диплома.
На 25 октомври 2011 представители на London School of Economics ще посетят училището и ще представят програмите за обучение пред учениците на Гимназия Златарски. Имаме установени контакти с елитните университети във Великобритания и Европа. Училището се ползва с нужната репутация сред приемните комисии, което подпомага учениците на гимназията при кандидатстване. Тази есен презентации в училището ще изнесат и представители на New York University, University of Kent, Aston University и др.

Тук учениците и учителите работят заедно за постигане на най-добрите резултати. За да успееш, трябва да се трудиш много и да знаеш какво искаш”, споделя Николай.
Гимназия Златарски е оторизирана да провежда и приемните изпити за Оксфорд и Кеймбридж в България. На 2 ноември 2011г. кандидати от цялата страна могат да се явят в училището на изпитите BMAT, ELAT, HAT, PAT, STEP, TSA. Регистрацията за изпитите продължава от 1 септември до 12 октормври 2011г.

So the academic year starts again and as with every year the first event on the academic calendar is the IB retreat. As with other years the IB retreat was over two days and works as a comprehensive information session for the new 11th grade IB students.
While the retreat this year still included all the presentations from previous years the second day focused more on activities rather than presentations. There was also an opportunity to introduce new members of staff.
The activities on the second day involved the students deciding what would be an ideal IB student, the qualities that would be needed compared to the qualities they hav
e now. There was also an opportunity for the students to get some first-hand experience in how the CAS element of the programme worked, with a role play.
Finally, the students received some very valuable advice on how to deal with IB stress. All in all it was agreed by both students and staff alike that the two day event had been very useful and a lot of fun.
Here’s wishing all the students the very best for the forthcoming IB academic year.
