HISTORY
TLC Private School is in its 10th year and has emerged as one of the premier private schools on the island. Its Founders, Jill and Chris Watts, originally came to the island to retire but, having been approached by expatriate families, decided to open a small school. Ten years on, the school has gone from strength to strength with students from the age of 2.5 to 18 and with a committed staff of over 60 experienced teachers. Having begun life in Peyia, the school moved to larger premises in Ayios Georgios and, after an extensive programme of improvements, is now able to offer a broad education with excellent facilities to students from the local area.
In 2019 the Directors were successful in acquiring the Baccarat Estate on Ayios Georgios Road, now known as The Parkland Estate, which includes an imposing main house and four adjacent teaching blocks set in large grounds with lots of natural grass and shade. This exciting development will enable the school to accommodate its rapidly increasing student roll. The expansion of the school’s accommodation has included significant improvements in specialist facilities, including the establishment of faculties for languages, sciences and mathematics, sport, technology and the arts.[/penci_text_block][/penci_column][/penci_container][/vc_column][/vc_row]
