La Escuela de Lancaster

Located in Mexico City, Mexico. The school operates two campuses in the Tlalpan borough: Rey Yupanqui Campus (Preschool–Primary) at Rey Yupanqui 46, Chimalcoyotl, Tlalpan, 14630 CDMX; and Diligencias Campus (Secondary–High School) at Calle Prol. 5 de Mayo 67, San Pedro Mártir, Tlalpan, 14650 CDMX.

Kindergarten through High School. Rey Yupanqui Campus serves Preschool through Primary, while Diligencias Campus serves Secondary through Bachillerato/High School. The curriculum includes Cambridge IGCSE, the International Baccalaureate (IB) program, IMYC for ages 11–14, and CCH–UNAM.

The International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP) provides the core framework for the Lancaster curriculum at the primary and preschool level. English is used in classes alongside drama, art, computing, sports, music, Spanish, and mathematics within the SEP framework and the IB programme. The PYP uses six units of inquiry per grade level across transdisciplinary themes, and the Lancaster Programme of Inquiry is designed through collaboration with the school community. In secondary, the curriculum blends the SEP requirements with the Cambridge IGCSE for ages 14–16 and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP). The International Middle Years Curriculum (IMYC) is used as a transition between the PYP and IGCSE for 11–14 year olds, and the UNAM CCH pathway yields a UNAM certificate on completion. The four educational pillars are biculturalism, community, critical thinking, and holistic formation.

Our graduates are recognized at the best universities worldwide.

The school celebrates diversity and fosters the development of each student's identity, offering an environment that nurtures critical thinking and creativity. Our bicultural, student-centered vision cultivates empathy and curiosity, preparing students to become globally conscious citizens in a diverse world. The educational project rests on four pillars: biculturalism, community, critical thinking, and holistic formation. We are a community that welcomes students from diverse origins, abilities, and interests, and provides an educational program that stimulates reflection, analysis, understanding of others, commitment to the community, and respect, empathy, and honesty.
