St.
Matthew’s College is a lay, coeducational, bilingual
school which consists of Kindergarten, Junior, Middle
and Senior School. The school has approximately 500
students and its campus stands in the city of Buenos
Aires. It also counts with a 17 hectare site located
in Pilar which is used to practice sports and other
activities.
Since its foundation, the school has followed a policy
of continuous improvement and expansion.
Our integrated bilingual programme targets to the highest
standard in academic education, sports, the arts and
a complete and solid formation of every aspect of a
student’s personality.
St. Matthew’s College’s main goal is to
give students an exemplary ethical grounding and prepare
them for life in higher education at any university.
Our Kindergarten offers a safe, warm and nurturing learning
environment. Children are challenged and stimulated
through a variety of activities to learn through discovery.
The Junior School curriculum is roughly half-day Spanish
and half- day English medium teaching. Children learn
in a warm and caring environment which makes for happy
and creative learning of the English language.
As from Middle School our local academic programs are
officially recognized as bilingual, and French is incorporated
as a third language. In Senior School, instruction carried
out in English leads to the local bilingual diploma,
IGCSE exams administered by the University of Cambridge
and the IB Diploma Programme, offered by the International
Baccalaureate Organization.
The school offers a wide programme of sports: hockey,
rugby, volley, athletics, and special activities such
as: Music, Art, Choir, Chess, Community Service, and
Religion, all of which are practiced daily on the school’s
campus.
For several years now, the school offers an international
exchange programme with different bilingual schools
from around the world such as United Kingdom, Australia,
South Africa, Chile, Uruguay and others.
