6-12 years
Primary School is a stage aimed at developing to the maximum each student’s abilities and skills, work habits, effort and responsibility, as well as critical spirit and personal initiative, laying the groundwork for obtaining good results in Secondary Education and Baccalaureate.
As part of Fomento’s educational project, specific projects and programs are being developed at this stage, which are continuously updated. The English language proficiency of our students is attested to by the Cambridge external exams; more than 80% finish Primary School with a level equivalent to A2. Beginning in 5th Year of Primary School, students of Fomento’s schools can participate in various language programs abroad, in schools in the United States, Reino Unido and Ireland.
At all educational stages, Fomento’s schools are also defined by personalised education, quality, educational innovation and Christian identity.
