Villa Caritas School is a private Catholic girls' school in Peru that welcomes students from age 1 to 18 and partners with its sister school San Pedro. It offers a bespoke curriculum alongside the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) and Cambridge IGCSE, with English as the language of instruction from Early Years and about 80% of classes taught in English. From grade 3, students study a third language, with German or French; the school provides DELF for French and Sprachdiplom for German. Cambridge ESOL assessments (YLE, PET, FCE) are part of the progression, culminating in IGCSE English B HL. The 148-acre campus hosts MakerSpace for STEAM projects, extensive sports facilities, and an Arts Program featuring film, visual arts, music, and theatre. An annual film is produced with the University of Lima, and students undertake study trips and solidarity activities. The Catholic identity and academic standards underpin a truly holistic, worldwide education.
