About us:

Lancaster School is a non-profit, bicultural, inclusive school with a progressive educational philosophy, firmly committed to both Mexican and international educational systems. While we are rightly proud that many of our graduates go on to university, we do not measure the school's success only through academic performance. Central to the school's philosophy and practice is the recognition that our educational project focuses on helping our students discover who they are and who they want to be. As a community, we welcome diversity in all its forms and the complexity that goes with this.

Lancaster caters for roughly 700 children from 3 to 18 years, mostly of Mexican nationality from professional and academic families. Our students start with the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) during the Primary years. Secondary students study the Cambridge curriculum, IGCSEs and the IB Diploma, while also completing local educational requirements. French classes are limited to a maximum of 20 students.
