It was established as a school for all South Slavic nations in 1948. The school began its work in Pécs, but was soon out of political reasons, moved to Budapest. The school later replaced the name South Slavic with Serbian and Croatian. In 1993, as a result of the Yugoslav Wars, the Croatian component was removed from the school’s name. In 2012, the Serbian president Tomislav Nikolić visited the school.[2]
