Innove maintains the Tallinn European School (TES). TES provides high-level education from nursery to secondary for members of the international community.

Their mission is to provide multilingual and multicultural education for pupils at every school level.

Their vision is to be the best provider of international education in Estonian by using an individualistic approach to miximise pupils’ own potential.

Tallinn European School primarily enrolls:

• Children of employees of EU institutions and agencies;

• Children of foreigners living and working in Estonia if at least one parent works in a foreign diplomatic position and if the child’s mother tongue / dominant language is not Estonian;

• Children who have studied abroad in the European Schools’ system or International School for at least three years, due to the fact that one of their parents is working or worked in a foreign state according to the employer’s written con�rmation;

• Children of TES employees with a contract of at least 60%, if the mother tongue / dominant language of the child is not Estonian.

In addition, there are 11 mother tongue programmes: Estonian, Finnish, German, Italian, Greek, Hungarian, Latvian, Bulgarian, Spanish, Lithuanian and Portuguese. If the child is following a mother tongue programme then his/her second language must be English (English section) or French (French section).
