ACADEMICS

The framework of our education model is based on the British curriculum, which provides a structured, progressive, and internationally respected framework for student learning from Early Years through to High School. At The Casco School, we integrate this curriculum with bilingual education, project-based learning, and a strong emphasis on the holistic development of each child.

British Education System

At The Casco School, we follow a broad and balanced British curriculum, delivering an “Internationally British”education in English and Spanish to children aged 2 to 18. Our educational model is rooted in the globally respected British system and tailored to our international and bilingual context in Panama.

The British curriculum is structured into clearly defined Key Stages that align with children’s natural development, providing continuity and progression from Early Years through to High School. Our model nurtures students to become creative, open-minded, and thoughtful individuals, well-prepared for university and the global workplace.

This stage focuses on social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development in a nurturing environment.
