What is our commitment with the education in Perú?

What are the goals we have set up?

• Become a “great place to work” not only for the

teachers but for the administrative personnel.

• Develop a quality assurance program for back office

and each of our schools.

• Achieve the development of the whole child, each and

every child in our schools.

• Accomplish our financial goals.

• Achieve high quality education at a low and

reasonable cost in the country and the region.

• Market segmentation: low income families with a

monthly income of 1,100 US dollars per month. Focus

on not raising tuition to guarantee these targeted

families access to a quality education.

• Growth model: 70 schools in 10 years, an average of 8

new schools per year, the speed of implementation

forces us to come up with strategic ways to reduce time

for the full implementation of crucial processes:

students learning.

•

Some of the challenges we are already facing

• During the first three years of life, the schools for

the most part are novice institutions.

• Most of the processes need to be consolidated:

admission, registration, teacher mentoring,

logistics, parent meetings, full implementation of

our socio-constructivist and personalized learning

model.

Some of the challenges we are already facing

Some of the challenges we are already facing

• 70 schools: a population of 80 000 students , 6 500

teachers and approximately 120 000 parents.

• Assure land bank, this year for the first time we will be

opening two schools outside of Lima: teacher

recruitment and training, and the question of

standardized vs. diversified curriculum.

Nuevo Chimbote School Chincha School

• Young teachers are more open to our teaching

methodology, however we face the problems and

risks associated to hiring novice teachers.

• Students entrance level, many of or children pose

big challenges to our novice teachers: conduct or

learning difficulties, attention and concentration

issues; added to this, the lack of stimulus

associated to contexts of poverty and scarcity.

Some of the challenges we are already facing

We have developed several models:

architecture, finance, educational,

Human resources, quality assurance

This offer is based in four pillars

We offer education for the whole student

to prepare them for the future
