Who Owns Cambridge College Lima?

Cambridge College Lima was founded in 1995 in Lima, Peru, as a premium international school offering bilingual Spanish-English education with Cambridge International qualifications. The school was established to serve families in Lima seeking high-quality private education with internationally recognized qualifications that would support student progression to universities in Peru and internationally.

Lima, as Peru's capital and largest city, is home to a significant international community of diplomats, multinational corporate employees, and other internationally mobile professionals, as well as a large population of Peruvian families seeking premium private education for their children. Peru's growing economy and expanding middle class have increased demand for premium private education with internationally recognized qualifications.

Cambridge College Lima was established to meet this demand, offering a bilingual Spanish-English curriculum that prepares students for Cambridge International qualifications, including Cambridge IGCSE at age 16 and Cambridge International AS and A Level qualifications at age 18. These Cambridge qualifications are recognized by universities worldwide, supporting student progression to universities in Peru, the United Kingdom, the United States, and other countries.

The school's name reflects its affiliation with Cambridge Assessment International Education, the Cambridge University Press and Assessment division that provides internationally recognized curriculum frameworks and qualifications to schools around the world. Cambridge International qualifications are offered by thousands of schools in more than 160 countries, making them one of the world's most widely recognized international school qualification frameworks.

Over nearly three decades, Cambridge College Lima developed a reputation as one of Lima's leading international schools, serving students from Peru and from the international community. The school built a diverse student body drawn from Peruvian families and the families of diplomats, multinational corporate employees, and other internationally mobile professionals based in Lima.

As part of Inspired Education Group's strategy to build a global portfolio of premium private schools, Cambridge College Lima became part of the Inspired network.
