About JFK
Small School, Big Heart
Founded in 1971, we are now a home to 95 students (aged 2.5 to 14) and 26 expert faculty and staff — a community representing over 22 different nations. We are proud of our international and multi-cultural ethos, and the way our community collaborates to make a difference. Our world-renowned curriculum is built on the best of global standards.
We offer a unique, family-oriented, educational environment where all students are motivated to fully develop their talents and skills in order to prepare them for acceptance into the best and most demanding secondary schools and also for the challenges of the world in which they will live and work.
The school is a co-educational English-language boarding and day school for children ages 4 to 14, culminating in the Year 9 (Grade 8). The growing student body is made up of around 60 students from over twenty different countries.
Boarding enrolment is limited to 25 students in order to maintain first-rate quality of care in our family-like environment.
