Spear’s Review

Located across two campuses, one in the southern suburbs of Buenos Aires and another in the northern part of the city, St George’s College is a non-profit school focusing on providing a ‘forward-looking approach’ to education. While the school does offer boarding, most of its students are day pupils whose parents are based in Argentina. 

While popular among local communities, the school says that 50 per cent of its classes are taught in English. Students therefore receive a bilingual education, preparing them for life beyond the school’s classrooms. 

St George’s combines an Argentine national curriculum with the IGCSE and IB diploma examinations. Central to this curriculum is the school’s belief that education must be personalised and tailored to each student.

Academics

While specific exam results for St George’s College are not publicly disclosed, the school’s rigorous academic programmes suggest a strong emphasis on high academic standards.

School Profile

St George’s College combines more than 128 years of rich heritage with a forward-looking approach to education. As the only boarding school in Argentina, it brings together tradition, innovation and a strong international outlook. Across its two campuses, the school operates as one community with one shared educational philosophy, providing a consistent educational experience from kinder to college.

The school offers a truly bilingual education, combining the Argentine national curriculum with the IB framework and delivering learning in both English and Spanish. Students follow the IB Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme and Diploma Programme, alongside a broad academic, sporting, artistic and co-curricular offering. International awareness is embedded in school life, with a diverse community representing 20 nationalities, international exchanges, Model United Nations, sporting and cultural tours, and an International Teaching Assistant Programme delivered in partnership with universities overseas.

At the heart of St George’s is a strong sense of community and belonging, supported by a rich pastoral programme and close connections between students, families, staff and alumni. With its combination of heritage, international perspective, bilingual education and holistic development, St George’s College prepares students to navigate an evolving world with confidence, curiosity and a strong sense of responsibility.

Head teacher

Former deputy headmaster Roberto Prata was appointed headmaster of the school in 2024. Prata was an assistant IB examiner from 2003 to 2009 and has been building his teaching career since 1991.
