St George’s College
The 1,977 St. George’s College students, from around twenty countries, spread across three sites: Early Years and Junior in Lima, and the large and spread-out Secondary section in the wetlands suburb of Villa affording multiple opportunities for fieldwork and projects.
It is an active, vibrant, ninety-two year-old, co-ed, lay, day school boasting the Fieldwork curriculum continuum and the IB Diploma and Careers Programmes feeding local and international universities. The Diploma has a very generous set of course options.

Through RS, 2024 will see 11 plus individual exchanges around the world, in addition to group visits including Claremont, Disney’s CodEd in Orlando and Paris and ISCA. One hundred and thirty students travelled abroad this year.
