Established in 1972, our school has a rich history. Initially operating as a department of DELTA PROFESSIONAL SCHOOL and later as a department of BRITISH HELLENIC COLLEGE after 1990, it has evolved into a branch of the 4E EDUCATION AND TRAINING educational company. Today, our school operates not only in Athens but also in various cities across Greece (Thessaloniki, Chania). The name “Alexander the Great” was chosen to honor the significant influence of the Greek language, which spread extensively following Alexander the Great’s expedition to India. It is worth noting that Alexander the Great himself established the first organized school in Babylon, dedicated to teaching Greek language and culture to non-Greeks, as documented by Plutarch.
