Saint George School

Saint George School is a co-educational bi-lingual school located in Santo Dominigo, Dominican Republic. The school was first established in 1965 as an English-language school, but soon changed to its current bilingual status. An international school, Saint George maintains a strong rage of teaching and recreational facilities on its single campus, and as such is able to boast of a wide range of sports facilities, music rooms, science labs, and common areas, all maintained to a high standard. Students start in the infant school at the age of two, where most teaching takes place in English and a strong focus on motor development and individual learning. Spanish language areas begin in the junior school, with the curriculum being split between Spanish and English-language teaching. The Middle School builds on this progress, introducing more subjects to a higher standard, and a greater level of personal development, whilst senior school students begin their studies into the International Baccalaureate Diploma, an internationally-recognised qualification accepted by a huge number of universities. The overall curriculum at Saint George had a strong British-style focus, as well as extensive Spanish and American elements.
