An Inspired School

Academic Excellence

Academic excellence is the central pillar of education at all Inspired schools, extending beyond exceptional exam results. Our focus on high achievement encompasses all areas of learning, empowering students to reach their maximum potential while building confidence and independence. 

The bilingual programmes at St. Matthew School combine the strengths of the national Colombian curriculum with the globally recognised Cambridge International curriculum, starting from the early years to broaden students' future opportunities. Our programmes are led by specialist teachers who inspire student engagement, helping to establish a robust knowledge foundation. As a result, St. Matthew students achieve excellent academic outcomes and secure places at the most prestigious universities in Colombia, such as Universidad de los Andes, and internationally.

Sports

Sports at St. Matthew School play a crucial role in fostering confidence, self-esteem, motivation, discipline, health, and overall well-being. As an essential pillar of an Inspired education, sports are integral to both the curriculum and a wide selection of extracurricular activities. With access to premium sports facilities, our students engage in a diverse range of individual and team sports tailored to their interests, talents, and a wide range of abilities.

While some students at Inspired schools achieve national and international recognition in their chosen sports, all benefit from improved fitness, enjoyment, and the development of a lifelong passion for physical activity. The physical exercise involved in sports also enhances mental alertness, which is essential for academic success.

Performing & Creative Arts

Engaging in the arts introduces students to new forms of self-expression, fostering creativity and building self-confidence. In line with Inspired's approach, visual and performing arts—including drama, dance, public speaking, music, and visual arts—are key components of our curriculum and extracurricular activities at St. Matthew School. We provide purpose-built spaces and studios to help students elevate their talents and explore their passions in the arts, always supported by specialist teachers and coaches. The skills developed in these disciplines are highly transferable, enriching students' learning experience and boosting their academic and personal development.
