Erudito Lyceum

What Erudito Lyceum does

Erudito Lyceum (legal entity: Erudito licėjus, UAB) is a privately-held international school founded in 2016 in Lithuania by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nerijus Pačėsa and co-founder Laima Pačėsienė, operating two campuses in Vilnius (Aguonų g. 26) and Kaunas (J. Gruodžio g. 9). The institution delivers a full K-12 pathway for ages 5-18 across preschool through Grade 12, accredited to teach the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (IB PYP), the IB Diploma Programme (IB DP), and Cambridge Assessment International Education curricula, alongside the national Lithuanian curriculum. The school runs parallel national and international class tracks with a maximum of 20 students per class and a faculty of 150-160+ teachers recruited from more than 30 countries.

The core technology stack consists of third-party SaaS education platforms rather than proprietary systems: ManageBac serves as the electronic gradebook and academic management system, OpenApply handles online admissions workflows, Google Workspace for Education supports classroom collaboration, and IBIS manages official IB DP student records. The school also uses WordPress with the Polylang multilingual plugin for its public website, Microsoft Clarity for analytics, and Google reCAPTCHA for security. University placement is supported through integrations with UCAS, The College Board, and UBridge. No proprietary technology products, mobile applications, or AI/ML systems are disclosed.

The business model is predominantly tuition-driven, with annual fees ranging from €6,500-€9,800 per student depending on grade level and class type (national vs. international), payable as a recurring annual subscription with monthly installment options. Ancillary revenue streams include one-time admission administration fees (€450-€650), entrance test fees (€50-€70), daily meal charges (€10.50/day), Saturday School fees (€25-€35 per session), an online school uniform and supplies shop, and seasonal camps and extracurricular activities. The customer base consists of individual families (B2C), segmented into expat families requiring internationally transferable English-medium education and Lithuanian families seeking premium private education with international credentials. Go-to-market combines sales-led direct enrollment (school visits, application forms, entrance tests via OpenApply) with event-driven Open Days held regularly in both cities and a multi-channel digital presence across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube.
