Kääpa basic school is situated in South Estonia, near Võru town in a rural area. The first records of regular school work in Kääpa date back to 1835.

We put as much effort as possible into making equal opportunities and good education a reality for every child. The school has joined the movement of entrepreneurial schools in Estonia, the environmental programme GLOBE and the Bullying Free Schools programme. The school provides compulsory 9-year education.
