About Us | King's College Panama

At the Forefront of International Education

Our mission is to provide high-quality International education that delivers a transformative learning experience to all our pupils through engaging and effective teaching. Our core values and the latest proven international educational practices, enable children at our schools to achieve their academic ambitions and career aspirations.

We nurture the talents of all our pupils and and our expert team of teachers understand the importance of recognising the whole child, supporting not just their academic progress, but also their physical, emotional and social development.

At King's College Panama, we are committed to making a positive difference to the future of every one of our students, their families, and our staff members, while supporting and contributing to the wider world around us.

A Pathway To Success

At the heart of our educational philosophy lies a commitment to nurturing academic excellence while also fostering essential life skills, such as self-confidence and independence. We achieve this by placing our students at the heart of everything we do, and providing a comprehensive curriculum built upon Inspired's three core pillars: Academics, Performing & Creative Arts, and Sport.

While academics hold a central position in our educational framework, they are complemented in equal measure by the vibrant worlds of Performing & Creative Arts and Sport. This diverse curriculum ensures that each student has the opportunity to uncover their passions and hone their skills, ultimately leading to the development of confident, thoughtful, and knowledgeable young individuals.

Our learning environment is designed to support students to achieve consistently outstanding educational results, and we benchmark ourselves against the best schools in the world. We believe that we play an important role in preparing pupils for life after school, whether at university or employment, and we equip them with the skills they need to succeed in a rapidly changing, dynamic and diverse global environment.

Students at King's College Panama thrive in our safe, caring and academically challenging culture, and develop into well-rounded and community minded individuals.

A Proven Curriculum

Our blended curriculum (the UK National Curriculum, with its IGCSE and the rigorous IB Diploma), is a unique combination that offers both breadth and depth and serves as a gateway to top universities in the UK, Europe, USA, Canada and the world. The UK curriculum is the most successful and widely used in the world, placing a strong emphasis on key competencies such as literacy, numeracy, and problem-solving. Students at our school learn from first-hand experience, not just textbooks, and are encouraged to be creative in their thought processes so that they grow into independent critical thinkers.
