  1. Safety & Supervision

Dukley Academy is a secure British international school with a campus located in a safe and luxury Budva district with a 24/7 supervision.


The main accommodation facility (Harmonia Hotel) is in the same building with the school. Balanced meals are provided by the school canteen or the Hotel restaurant.


All activities — from workshops to excursions — are led by trained mentors and teachers.


Students live in comfortable accommodation, and enjoy balanced meals.

  1. Educational value

This program is designed to complement, not interrupt, your child’s school learning.


During their stay, students continue academic activities — exploring art, history, and geography through hands-on experiences.


We provide teachers with preparation materials so classroom themes can align with the trip.


We make sure every experience — from a museum visit to a sketching class — supports real academic growth.

  1. Creative Portfolio

Each student creates an individual clay art project under the guidance of professional artists.


At the end of the week, their works are displayed in a student exhibition — the perfect starting point for a creative portfolio.


This experience builds both confidence and evidence of long-term creative engagement valued by universities and art schools.


Universities appreciate not only talent, but creative continuity — this trip helps your child begin that journey.

Daily schedule

Each program day may vary according to the time of year and group interests, however an average program day consists of three distinct parts separated by meals:

Morning slot (10:00–13:00) – academic and exploratory sessions led by the visiting group's own teacher, taking place in our dedicated classroom facilities or during guided local walks and excursions. Teachers are supported in curriculum preparation in advance. In warm months (May, June, September, and October), we recommend including swimming at the nearby beach (just a 3-minute walk from the school) at the end of the morning session.


Afternoon slot (15:00–17:30) – a hands-on art workshop conducted by our local artist. The primary medium is clay, but we can adapt to other materials based on the group’s preferences.

Evening slot – flexible time led by the visiting teachers for activities such as journaling, media reflection, games, or film screenings.
