Frequently asked questions

1. What are the values we must adhere to as part of the New Cambridge family?

Families must share in and prioritize the educational process and the principles based on our academic model, which seek to build an integral education with a balance between being and knowing. Having a family that shows a solid family structure with high interest in the educational process of our students is of vital importance for the empathic bond with our community to allow an ideal admission process.

2. What is the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma program?

 

Each of our sections (preschool, primary and high school) work under this pedagogy centered around constructivism. In preschool they work based on learning environments. 
In primary they follow the IB methodology, they are constructivist, student-centered, and they learn through inquiry. In high school our students follow the IB methodology, which is constructivist, student-centered. The IB methodology is based on teaching and learning approaches.

3. How does the IB Diploma program benefit my child?

The IB program helps create connections that are valid internationally. ICFES is only valid in Colombia, therefore students who wish to study or move abroad would have to complete additional requirements to demonstrate their skills. The IB program avoids this. It also has added benefits for students remaining in Colombia as they will complete coursework related directly to university study and possibly receiving university credits which may allow them to complete nearly a year of university study early.

Exchanges that are part of our 'International Path':
