Ninth graders from Mozaika celebrated their success at the entrance exams

ZŠ a MŠ Mozaika is the most successful school in the Czech Republic in preparing pupils for the 2024 entrance exams.

The most successful ninth graders in Cermat tests in 2024 were pupils from Montessori ZŠ a MŠ Mozaika in Mnichovice, writes Deník.cz on 13 February 2025.

It is great news that children can develop their talents and enjoy school and at the same time they can achieve great results. The maximum number of points in mathematics and the Czech language was always 50. Data from 2024 shows that half of the pupils from Mozaika ZŠ achieved at least 91 points out of a possible 100 in Cermat tests.

Half of our ninth graders scored atleast 48 points in maths and 43 points in the Czech language. This makes Mozaika the most successful school in the Czech Republic in preparing pupilsfor entrance exams.

We are pleased that our students have been successful in the admission procedures for a long time. You can see their results over the years through the graphs.

We are aware that the ranking reflects the sum of the points, not the overall quality. However, for many, it is encouraging to know that children can enjoy school, develop in areas that interest them, and achieve great results. 

"Their success is a reflection of their responsible preparation and attitude and for that they are to be congratulated. I would also like to thank everyone who contributes to the running of our school - teachers, parents and all of the staff," says Táňa Kadlecová, the school's headmistress.

How to pass the entrance exams with ease and a great result?

We asked our alumni for recommendations for those who are currently preparing for the exams.

 

Here are 8 tips from our successful middle school students for those who have yet to take the exams:

·        Start studying early.

·        Remember that the tests may be structured differently each year. Don't just          rely on past tests.

·        Learn how to write tests: Focus on improving your Cermat test writing skills.         Improve your personal strategy.

·        Take mock tests: Try writing admissions tests in a simulated environment to          familiarize yourself with time pressure and the test format.

·        After each test, review it and correct your mistakes. This will help you to see          what you still need to work on.

·        Consider a tutor: If you're struggling with a subject, consider a tutor. A one-         on-one approach or a different perspective from another teacher will help          you better handle the difficult parts.

·        Think about relaxation: Limit your studying the week before the exam. Allow          yourself plenty of sleep and relaxation so that you are in a relaxed frame of          mind on the day of the test.

·        Good food and drink: Have something sweet for breakfast and a snack before          the test. This will give you energy and help you concentrate.
