Introduction

Located at 34 Yarborough Road, Belize City, Wesley College offers a Bespoke Curriculum for a co-educational secondary program with a Junior College/Sixth Form. The four-year path begins with a common lower secondary foundation (Forms 1–2) and leads into four upper-secondary options: Academic Science, Academic Social Science, Business, and Academic General Programme. Students sit the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) exams through the Caribbean Examinations Council, with exam opportunities locally and internationally arranged in partnership with BAPSS, CSSSA, and ATLIB. The school traces its origins to the Methodist Church's founding in 1882 and reopened the tertiary level in 2003 as a three-year Junior College/Sixth Form. The campus features a music building, a science laboratory, and three computer/technician laboratories that support arts and STEM learning. A hidden curriculum fosters responsible Belizean citizenship, while the arts focus is reinforced by formal music programs and related facilities.
