A Russian school is run in the center of London that educates children according to the Russian curriculum and promotes Russian ideas - The Times The school was originally founded in 1954 to educate the children of Soviet diplomats working in the UK. The school is now run by the Russian Foreign Ministry, and the curriculum and extra-curricular activities are identical to the Russian school. According to The Sunday Times, in addition to the children of Russian officials (employees of the embassy or trade mission), the school accepts children of Russians living in the UK (incidentally, many of them have British citizenship) and children of Belarusian diplomats working in London. According to the media, among the students of the school are also children of known Russian spies and persons suspected of espionage. In total, the school has about 60 students aged 7 to 18, while about 40 more attend evening classes. The only requirement is knowledge of the Russian language. For children of non-diplomats, tuition is paid. The educational process is based on the Russian state curriculum, which, as The Sunday Times notes, is becoming increasingly propagandistic and militaristic. History lessons are taught using Medinsky's textbook, rewritten last year to present the war as part of Russia's historical mission. High school students are taught a course called "Fundamentals of Security and Defense of the Homeland," in which they learn combat maneuvers and weapons firing techniques. In physical education classes, students practice throwing hand grenades and throwing tennis balls. Extracurricular activities and festivals are organized entirely in the spirit of Russian schools. Children hold charity fairs to raise funds for "our boys", and during the "Come on, boys" competitions they compete in crossbow shooting and bandaging the "wounded". On 9th May, they march with portraits of the "immortal regiment" and perform in the uniforms of Red Army soldiers with banned St. George ribbons.
