Descripción

PASCAL English School is a private co-educational six-year English-medium secondary school whose graduates receive an Apolytirion (recognised national secondary school leaving qualification). PASCAL English School Nicosia was founded in 1988. It is a day and boarding IB World School. The school is fully recognised by the Cyprus Ministry of Education and Culture.

Pupils are admitted to Year 1 after succeeding in the entrance examinations. Year 1 corresponds to Year 7 of the UK educational system. As the school runs a six-year secondary programme, its pupils graduate having completed Year 12. Lower school pupils, Years 1-3, follow a broad curriculum consisting of 14 compulsory subjects. Upper school pupils, Years 4-6, study 6 core subjects plus 3 to 5 additional optional subjects. In addition to the school work, which is geared towards the Apolytirion, pupils may take the IGCSE, GCE AS and A Level/International A Level examinations in their optional subjects. Alternatively, in Years 5 and 6 pupils may follow the 2-year International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme which also leads to the Apolytirion and The Diploma of the International Baccalaureate/Diploma Programme
Courses Results. 

The school fosters a healthy competitive environment and runs comprehensive mandatory extra-curricular activities programme with an aim of enriching pupils’ knowledge and hands on experience outside the academic arena. For example, pupils are given opportunities to develop their leadership skills by organising various fundraisers, by attending specialized summer schools or volunteering in summer programmes abroad. Thus, PASCAL English School graduates meet the expectations and the requirements of highly competitive universities worldwide. The graduates secure placements at top UK, other European, USA and other worldwide universities based on the Apolytirion only or the Apolytirion with other secondary school leaving qualifications (GCE A Levels/IAL or The Diploma of the International Baccalaureate/Diploma Programme Courses Results).

The school runs an English camp for international students throughout the year. The language course consists of 25 hours. The summer camp includes a 15-hour English course in individual classes up to 15 students. The summer course does not include elective classes either. The facilities include classrooms, physics and computer labs and a library. There is a gymnasium and playing fields on site. During the week children will enjoy sunbathing and swimming, go for a walk and visit an aqua park, a rope park and a nature trail in the mountains.

Students live in a new state-of-the-art residence of 24 studios 10 minutes away from the school. Each room has a bathroom, work area, kitchenette, covered balcony, modern comfortable furniture, TV with satellite channels and air conditioning (cooling and heating modes). Student safety is a top priority in the residence. The building is equipped with a 24-hour CCTV system and an electronic access control system (electronic keys). A student supervisor and security guard are on duty 24/7. Meals are served times a day.

The residence is located in one of the most prestigious residential areas of Nicosia, Engomi. Shops, cafes, dance school, gym, indoor shopping centre Mall of Engomi and the University of Nicosia are a few metres away.
