Learning languages broadens horizons
Through our ICE Diploma pathway, we provide students with a strong bilingual education supported by English immersion from the earliest years of schooling. As students advance through their academic journey, they also have the opportunity to learn Portuguese as a third language. The ICE Diploma is awarded based on students’ performance in Cambridge IGCSE examinations, a goal for which they are systematically prepared throughout their entire school experience.
Our Portuguese language programme strengthens communication skills while broadening students’ cultural and social perspectives. By learning a third language, students connect with new realities and gain access to a world of opportunities that enhances their personal and professional development in an increasingly interconnected global environment.
Our students benefit from English language recognition and validation for university admission processes. In addition, Cambridge qualifications may provide subject exemptions, advanced standing, or preferential admission opportunities depending on the chosen programme and institution. Students who earn the ICE Diploma can access a wide range of benefits offered by universities that recognize Cambridge International qualifications.
We offer a variety of national and international immersion experiences designed to strengthen English language proficiency and foster global citizenship:
• Grade 4: English Night
• Grade 5: English Camp
• Grades 6–7: Canada Immersion Experience
• Grades 8–11: England Immersion Experience
• Silicon Valley: Parent–Student Experience
• English classes for parents
These experiences provide authentic opportunities for students and families to use English in meaningful real-world contexts while expanding their international outlook.
Our students participate in community outreach initiatives where they teach English to children from public schools in Medellín. Through this experience, they strengthen their own communication skills while making a positive impact on the community, promoting collaborative learning, and developing empathy, leadership, and social responsibility.
