Villa Devoto School is a bilingual English-Spanish, secular, coeducational institution serving ages 2 to 18. Founded in 1908 by English immigrant families in Villa Devoto, it preserves a link with England while embracing its Argentine context. The curriculum blends Cambridge International Examinations (PET, IGCSE) from primary with the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme in the final two years. Classes are taught in English and Spanish, using a constructivist, communicative approach to language and intercultural understanding. In Primary, technology is integrated across the curriculum with internet-enabled PCs, tablets, an ICT lab, interactive screens and a bilingual library, all supported by the Orientation Team. Drama Workshop and a yearly musical for 4th–7th grade complement core subjects such as History, Science, Literature and Literacy. Cambridge exams certify levels A1, A2 and B1 in 3rd, 5th and 7th grades. The four Houses—Kent, York, Gloucester and Windsor—foster teamwork and leadership, with students taking on roles such as captains and prefects.
