About PASCAL International Education
Our family of day and boarding schools are in the cities of Lefkosia, Larnaka, and Lemesos. Founded in 1978, we provide an exceptional international education for children aged 3-18.
We ignite curiosity in young students via our Early Years Learning programme in Kindergarten, followed by the world-class Cambridge Primary curriculum.
In Secondary, we provide the broadest curricula in Cyprus. Our graduates receive their Apolytyrion, and they have the option of taking IGSCE, GCE AS, A Level, International A Level, and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (in Lefkosia and Larnaka). PASCAL is the only private school provider in Cyprus with a six-year Secondary programme in English, which opens a plethora of university study options for our graduates, including top global universities.
As well as academic excellence, we provide a welcoming family atmosphere and an open-door policy for students and parents. High standards of safeguarding and pastoral care along with dedicated teaching staff result in students feeling supported, at ease, and in the right mindset to learn.
PASCAL schools have always had a strong pioneering spirit. Hence, we are the only schools in the world to have Space Centres on our campuses! With incredible facilities, passionate teachers, STEAM coordinators and ambition, we provide transformative STEAM learning opportunities that pique innovation, and a growth mindset.

PASCAL Private Secondary School Lemesos is a Candidate School* for the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP). This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School.

Pastoral care
At PASCAL schools, we know from our substantial experience that young people are most likely to be successful academically if they feel secure in their school environment. As such, PASCAL schools have an established approach and well-thought out system of pastoral care that offers support and guidance to every student.We are more than a learning community, we are a family.
Our pastoral care system is highly efficient and effective in what it sets out to achieve:
- A secure environment in which all students are valued and seen as an individual part of our family.
- Developing students and unlocking their potential – academically, personally, and socially.
Through the systematic, in-depth approach to pastoral care, we believe that students are educated to have broad and balanced personalities, aware of the world around them. The ultimate goal is to send into the world young adults who have self-discipline, are prepared to work hard and are equipped to fulfil their potential. All pupils are expected to be compassionate and well-mannered; to respect other people as individuals, to appreciate the richness of a multiethnic, multicultural community, to take pride in their appearance; to express themselves clearly; and to be principled critical thinkers.
Staff responsible for pastoral care
Form teachers are the first point of reference in matters of general welfare and discipline, with Heads of Year, Assistant Head Teachers, and Head of School providing additional support. In-depth information about our Pastoral Care can be found in our Study Guide, Rules and Regulations.
