Introduction

Escuela Lomas Altas is an IB World School in Mexico offering the Primary Years Programme for Preschool and Primary. The curriculum is inquiry-based and organized around Units of Inquiry, with total immersion in English and Spanish—roughly half of the content in each language. The school maintains a 1:6 teacher–student ratio to enable individualized attention, and sixth graders graduate bilingual in English and Spanish, prepared to continue in the junior high of their choice. Preschool and Primary curricula are incorporated into SEP (Secretaría de Educación Pública). Founded in 1976, the campus emphasizes multilingual engagement and cross-cultural understanding, supported by a library of about 15,000 volumes in English and Spanish. The outdoor facilities include a hard-surface basketball court and a play area. Extracurriculars span sports (basketball, football, handball), drama, music, chess, robotics and Stop Motion. The Sanderson Academy Exchange Programme and UNESCO International Mother Tongue Day reflect the school's global outlook.
