What makes Craighouse School one-of-a-kind?

●      English and Spanish bilingual education: from the first day of class, children are taught in English as a second language, which ensures bilingual immersion and exposure for all pupils.

●      Academic excellence, with an inquiry-based focus that prepares our pupils from Prekinder to Year 12 so that they can reach high academic standards.

●      All teachers and members of our educational community, renowned professionals from the most prestigious universities in Chile and abroad, have each pupil’s care and learning as their main focus.
