HISTORY
In 1987 the school began with six students, but with its strong academic ethos and staff dedication, numbers increased, additional buildings were acquired, and new departments were introduced. Land was purchased for creating a state-of-the-art campus and the school moved in 2007 to its current site on the Limassol to Troodos road. This award-winning school is the only school in Cyprus to hold current accreditation from the prestigious British Council International School Award.[/penci_text_block][/penci_column][/penci_container][/vc_column][/vc_row]
