The school has been running in Szczecin since September 2001. Its Polish name is Prywatna Ogólnokształcąca Szkoła Muzyczna I st. – Leonarda Piwoni w Szczecinie. Pupils follow an eight-year cycle in which the music and general curricula run side by side, as a daytime programme.
The school operates under the pedagogical supervision of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage and holds public-school status. Completing it allows pupils to continue at a second-degree music school or at any secondary school of their choice.
