Located in Concepción and Chillán, The Wessex School is a private bilingual day school offering Montessori Curriculum and an English–Spanish curriculum from preschool through secondary years. The Chillán campus is bilingual and serves as an Oxford University Press language testing center, with instruction in English for early years and primary and Spanish for upper secondary subjects, alongside groups focused on English for international exams. The integrated, competency-based program centers on four pillars—Learn to be, Learn to know, Learn to live together, and Learn to transfer— and emphasises holistic development through clubs, assemblies, electives, study tours, social projects and integrated projects. Graduates transfer learning to real life, collaborate with solidarity and tolerance, and communicate effectively in both English and Spanish. Facilities include an on-site infirmary, a dining facility with vegetarian options, uniforms, and transport; sports facilities feature a gym and a large multicancha, with rugby highlighted in school events and festivals.
