A school that started because one family had to decide whether to stay in Cyprus at all.
Alexander Shkuratov, founder and CEO of The Island Private School in Limassol, sits down with Elena Krutova without a script. No pre-shared questions, no talking points, no second take.
The school now has close to 1,000 students and around 200 staff drawn from more than 40 countries. It started with under 100 students and a problem he could not solve any other way.
In this episode:
Why the family nearly emigrated instead, and what his wife said that changed it
What traditional education optimises for, and why he thinks that model is running out of road
Whether leadership can be taught, and the family exercise he uses to explain how
Why he expects this generation to change professions rather than jobs, and what a school owes them because of it
How AI is actually used in his classrooms, where the ethical line sits, and how teachers spot the work that is not a student's own
What he believes the teacher's role becomes once AI is normal
His advice to parents of young children, including the two extremes he sees most often
The myth that it is a school for Russians, answered directly
Cyprus bureaucracy, and the deals he has watched fall apart because of it
The value he promotes inside the school, and why it is not a poster
The weakness he names in himself as a leader
