St George’s College, Quilmes, Argentina is a private, bi-lingual, co-educational day and boarding school of some 825 students, which follows the southern hemisphere academic calendar, starting in late February and finishing in December. It was founded in 1898, along the lines of an English public school and the Headmaster is a member of the overseas section of the Headmasters Conference (HMC). The school has been authorized by the International Baccalaureate to offer the Diploma programme since 1984. St George’s is a member of the Boarding Schools Association (BSA) and of the Latin American Heads Conference (LAHC), which groups together 42 schools on the continent of British origins and practices. St George’s maintains close links with the international community through student exchanges, besides overseas sporting and cultural tours and has 17 staff recruited from the UK and other English speaking countries.

The school’s Mission is to provide students with a bilingual education that integrates the Argentine and International curricula. We strive for the continual improvement in the quality of the teaching and learning, management and school resources in order that students may develop their potential to the full. Our environment nurtures individual development, independent thinking, sportsmanship and an extensive and close interaction with the community.

The School consists of three sections, Kindergarten (3-6 years), Preparatory School (6-11 years) and Secondary (11-18 years).  Each section has its own Head and Senior Management Team and these are responsible to the overall Headmaster of the School for the day-to-day running and strategic development of their section. Situated just 25 minutes outside the city of Buenos Aires, the beautiful and secure 27-hectare campus allows students to participate in extra curricular activities that are an integral part of our IB syllabus and school philosophy.  Whilst academic focus drives the school programme, attention is also centered on the physical, artistic, cultural, social and spiritual needs of our students. A further strength is the continuing commitment to high quality boarding which maintains the very special community spirit of this outstanding school.
