Tallinn Jewish School

School in Centre of Tallinn(Estonia).Only 189 people are currently studying there.This is low number of students.Even that 3000 jews live in Estonia and most of them in Tallinn,a lot of jewish families send thir children to normal schools due to low education level in Jewish School.In that school 3 additional lessons are studied.They are:Hebrew,Jewish History,Jewish Traditions.

A lot of jewish hollidays are celebrated so children of Jewish school get more free days that other students.Jewish School was built before II world war.When the war started the school was closed and Sea Army centre was there during the war and after war time.In 1991 the school was opened again.

Current Headmaster:Mihhail Beilinson


Secretary:Merike Rattas


Head of study: Faina Gabowitch.

About 30 teachers are working in this school+1 teacher of Hebrew who is being sent from Israel.Every year school is being renovated,but since building is very old,there is a lot of problems with main constructions.Country can't give money to school becouse it is property of Jewish Comunity in Estonia.
