Parent Experience

Community, involvement and what it's like to be a parent at this school

History

History: The Colegio Británico de Guadalajara was founded by Dr. Gloria Cecilia Paredes Águila and Dr. Bernabé Martínez Villalpando to launch a forward‑thinking educational project for its time. The formative goals included bilingualism through mastery of the English language, an integrated approach to learning, and the use of technology as an indispensable teaching tool, along with recognizing multiple intelligences and developing competency‑based programs that integrate knowledge, skills, attitudes and values. The project's core differentiator is its humanist philosophy, centered on people to achieve quality and warmth in school services. The school has operated for fifty years, celebrating half a century of stories, smiles and learning while continually innovating in response to a changing world.

Community

Community: The school is bilingual with a humanist philosophy. Our methodologies and study model have positioned us as a high‑performing academic institution. We offer extended hours, a healthy cafeteria service, extracurricular activities, and a Homework Club that give families greater scheduling flexibility and provide students with a rich, comprehensive educational experience.
