2 Społeczne Liceum Ogólnokształcące im. Pawła Jasienicy (known in Warsaw as Dwójka, 2 SLO) is a private non-profit community secondary school founded in 1989 by parents and teachers as a school with its own curriculum. It is one school with two tracks on two sites. At ul. Nowowiejska 5 are the Polish classes (oddziały polskie): four years of secondary school in Polish with an individual profile of three or four extended subjects and the Polish matura. At ul. Solec 48 are the international classes (oddziały międzynarodowe): the first two years are the school's own Pre-IB course, in which mathematics, English, geography, history, biology, chemistry, physics and computer science follow the IGCSE (extended) standard, and the last two years are the IB Diploma Programme. In the international classes lessons are in English, except Polish language and Polish history and geography. The school emphasises freedom, tolerance and responsibility and runs tutoring, the JasMUN student conference, a space and engineering project with a stratospheric balloon launch, theatre and a cycling club. In 2026 all IB graduates passed with an average score of 38.03.

About the fees Tuition (czesne) from 1 September 2026: 4120 PLN in the international classes and 2620 PLN in the Polish classes. It is paid monthly, by the 10th of each month; the school does not state for how many months a year. For a third child the fee is 50% or 80% of the base fee. There are merit and social scholarships that partly waive the fee.
Admissions Both tracks admit students to year 1 after eight years of Polish or foreign schooling, through a paid entrance examination; the examinations for the Polish and international classes are separate. International classes: written examinations in Polish, mathematics (in Polish or English) and English, then an interview of about 15 minutes in Polish or English, at the candidate's choice, for those with enough points. Foreigners and Poles who studied abroad for a long time may take English A instead of Polish; Polish students need the committee's consent. Applicants from abroad may request an adapted examination format, enclosing reports and recommendations. The examination fee is 890 PLN, registration runs from 23 January to 17 March 2027, examinations on 20-21 March and interviews on 3-4 April 2027. Three first-year classes of up to 22 students are formed. If the school cannot provide a student's mother tongue as Language A, it may decline admission. Polish classes: written examinations in Polish, mathematics and English on 24-25 April 2027, examination fee 700 PLN, two first-year classes. Admitted students confirm their place with a non-refundable fee and sign a contract.
Stages and year groups Polish track: liceum ogólnokształcące, years 1-4, Polish curriculum and matura; from the first year students choose a profile (for example mathematics-physics-computer science, biology-chemistry-mathematics, history-social studies-philosophy). International track: years 1-2 are the school's own Pre-IB (Pre-DP) course, where mathematics, English, geography, history, biology, chemistry, physics and computer science follow the IGCSE (extended) standard; the IGCSE examination is optional and the school does not recommend it; years 3-4 are the IB Diploma Programme (DP1, DP2): six subjects, three at higher and three at standard level. The school does not name the IGCSE board (Cambridge or Pearson).

IBInternational Baccalaureate
A Swiss non-profit, working since 1968. Its programmes are among the most widely recognised school programmes in the world. Authorisation is granted stage by stage, so a school with the final stage does not necessarily run the younger ones; which stages this school holds is set out in the line below.
What the badge means for this school. The school is allowed to run this programme and to award its certificate. This is a confirmation of the programme, not a judgement on the school as a whole. The entry stands in the organisation's public register - anyone can check it. At this school: DP (ages 16-19). DP is the final stage, ages 16 to 19: six subjects plus a compulsory core of theory of knowledge, an extended essay and CAS. The diploma is accepted by universities all over the world, and in a number of countries it counts for admission on the same footing as the local leaving certificate.

Part of the University of Cambridge. It allows a school to teach the Cambridge programmes and to enter pupils for the exams. There are four stages and they are authorised separately: primary, lower secondary, IGCSE and A Level. If the stages are known they are named in the line below; if that line is missing, the school does not publish them, and the Cambridge registry does not show stages either - it gives only the name of the centre, the country and whether private candidates are accepted. Cambridge calls what it does registration rather than accreditation, and the network holds about ten thousand schools.
What the badge means for this school. The school is allowed to run this programme and to award its certificate. This is a confirmation of the programme, not a judgement on the school as a whole. The entry stands in the organisation's public register - anyone can check it. At this school: IGCSE (ages 14-16). IGCSE means exams at around Year 10 or 11, the British counterpart of a lower secondary leaving certificate.
Register to check for yourself, and the full guide →National programme
The state school programme of the country the school stands in: it is set by that country's ministry of education, which also licenses the school and awards the leaving certificate. That certificate is used for entry to local universities, and abroad it is matched to the local one.
What this means for this school. This entry does not count towards the score, and that is deliberate. Every lawful school in a country works to the national programme, so on its own it tells one school apart from no other - unlike the French, German or Russian programmes, which are carried abroad and confirmed by the register of their organisation. We show it because a parent needs to know what programme their child is taught and what certificate the child will get. Counting it would lift the whole ranking at once and still tell nobody apart.

Reviews
No reviews yet. The community rating counts towards the score once a school has five verified reviews - until then we do not show a zero, so as not to mislead.

A low score here means the school does not write about this, not that the school does not have it: a school with good security and a sparse site will score low. A school can fill in its profile, and the score will be counted again.
The score is counted from 8 of the 9 criteria.Only those with checkable data count: programmes and accreditations from official registers, the fee from a published price list. Where it says "scored on the median", the school has no data and the middle of the list is put in its place, so that a gap gives no advantage. Admissions, teaching staff and reviews come in as their data arrives.
