The Radnóti Miklós Experimental Grammar School of Szeged saw many profile changes throughout its 120 year old<br />
history. Originally named after Gábor Klauzál, it served as a boys’ real school for Szeged’s middle class. After the second<br />
World War a mixed education was introduced, adding the training of skilled workmanship next to the real school. The<br />
current general gymnasial profile – aiming to achieve scientific excellence – was gradually built up starting from 1957. The<br />
school’s building is as old as the institute itself, historically decorated yet equipped with state of the art laboratories and ICT<br />
appliances. At the moment six different departments are operated: Mathematics-Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics,<br />
General Studies (with increased English or Spanish classes), Humanities and a talent care division focusing on students with<br />
underprivileged backgrounds.<br />
The students achieve the best results in Mathematics<br />
and Sciences. The average grades of the<br />
final examinations and the number of students<br />
accepted to universities both mark efficiency of<br />
the education and talent care. It is also known<br />
that not many schools can exceed the ’Radnóti’<br />
when it comes to results at national and international<br />
competitions. While the faculty is proud of<br />
the students’ achievements, they consider these<br />
competitions as a means of education, not as a<br />
main goal. During the preparation the students<br />
can learn confidence, persistency, self-knowledge<br />
and cooperation next to the professional<br />
knowledge. Hence the school’s motto: ’Sapere<br />
aude’ – ’Dare to know’.<br />
The construction of the Specialized Laboratory<br />
for Scientific Education (TERMOSZ Laboratory)<br />
was finished in 2015. The laboratory is located<br />
at the school’s area yet plays a central part in<br />
the renewal of scientific education collaborating<br />
with 18 other schools in the Szeged school<br />
district. The associates also help with the preparations<br />
and executions of international competitions,<br />
in addition they play a key role in the<br />
national biological talent care.<br />
