Founded in 1946, Gimnasio Campestre is a traditional all-boys bilingual day school located in northern Bogotá. The institution serves students from prekindergarten through 11th grade, focusing on character education to form "caballeros" (gentlemen) alongside a solid academic program. Instruction is delivered in Spanish and English, with French introduced as an additional language. A defining feature of the curriculum is its proprietary research structure; the school has integrated research into its daily framework for over 25 years through its "Jóvenes Investigadores" initiative and dedicated study centers, publishing student findings in the Astrolabio science journal. Additionally, the school operates the RedIE (School Research Network) in partnership with universities. Extracurricular programs are extensive, including a traditional "Banda de Guerra" (marching band), fencing, robotics, and Mandarin Chinese. The campus supports these activities with specialized athletic infrastructure and spaces designed for community service initiatives led by the student body.
