After-school activities for children in Belgrade

Sport, music, art and language classes, indexed by what your child would actually do. Every provider from its own page, with the date we read it – and no prices or timetables anywhere, on purpose.

Providers' own pages read 8 September 2026, for the 2026/27 season

By activity

We do not publish prices, timetables or term dates for any of these, even where the provider publishes them. They change every term, and an out-of-date class time is worse than none at all. Every row links to the provider's own page, which is where the current schedule lives.

Two of these eight are one group – Akademija Oxford and Institut za stručno usavršavanje i strane jezike. The Institut carries “Licensed by Akademija Oxford” in its footer and lists the same national branch network. Each publishes a children’s course of its own, at its own address, which is why each is listed separately.

What the schools themselves run

The middle column counts what the school names on its own page. Chartwell, Green School, Westbridge, EDUCA, Crnjanski, Deseta gimnazija and Ruska škola publish no list we could act on – some have a page in the right place that names only categories, one names annual events rather than clubs a child joins. For Young Sparrows and the Russian Embassy school we could not read the site at all, which is not the same as finding nothing.

What language will my child be coached in?

We read 92 providers' own pages outside the language schools. Four of them say what language they teach in. Not four in ten – four in total.

That is the single most useful thing we found, and it is a gap rather than an answer: it means a foreign family cannot choose an activity from a website, and has to ask every time. What we found, and what to ask sets out the four and the question that gets a straight answer.

What is on this page, and what is not

A provider is here if it publishes, on a page of its own, that it teaches children. That rule did most of the work: every provider on these pages is sourced from its own site, and none from a directory. Belgrade has many more clubs than this – a good number of them run entirely on Instagram, and we could not date or quote those, so they are not here.

We also left out providers whose own site we could not read, rather than quoting a directory's version of them. That is a deliberate cost: the guide is smaller and everything in it is checkable.
