As a parent, one of your top priorities when moving to a new place is ensuring that your children receive a good education. We understand that this can be a source of concern, but rest assured that there are plenty of excellent schooling options available for your children here in Grenada.
First and foremost, schooling is compulsory for students between the ages of 5 and 16. There are several government-run primary and secondary schools on the island that offer free education to all students. Both primary and secondary schools require pupils to pass an exam at the completion of each phase: the Caribbean Primary Exit Assessment (CPEA) and the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) respectively.
These schools typically follow the British education system and offer a curriculum that includes subjects such as mathematics, English, science, and social studies. They also typically offer extracurricular activities such as sports, music, and art.
In addition to government-run schools, there are also a number of private schools on the island that offer a more international curriculum. These schools typically follow the American or British education system and offer a wider range of subjects, such as foreign languages and advanced science and mathematics. They also tend to have smaller class sizes and more individualized attention for students.
For parents who prefer a more specialized education, there are also Montessori schools and international schools that offer unique curriculums.
All in all, there are many options to choose from when it comes to schooling in Grenada, and we are confident that you will be able to find the perfect fit for your child.
We understand that moving to a new place can be stressful, especially when it comes to finding the right school for your child. But please know that our community is full of friendly and welcoming people who will be happy to help you find the perfect school for your child.
