Established in 2012, King’s College School Panama is a British international school for students aged 2 to 18, located on a rainforest campus in Clayton, Panama City. Around 575 students representing more than 50 nationalities create a genuinely international community within a distinctly British educational setting.

Students progress from Early Years through the English National Curriculum, International GCSEs and, in Years 12 and 13, the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme. This provides the academic rigour of a British education alongside the international outlook and intellectual breadth of the IB.

Academic outcomes are strong. In 2026, King’s achieved an ALPS grade 2 for IGCSE, placing its value-added performance in the top 10% of the ALPS benchmark, while the IB Diploma achieved an ALPS grade 3, placing it in the top 25%. The graduating class achieved a 90% IB Diploma pass rate, with one third of students achieving 35 points or above, and 91% securing their first-choice university destination.

Education at King’s extends well beyond examination results. Sport, the arts, leadership, service and international experiences form an important part of school life. The King’s Advantage defines the qualities the school seeks to develop in every student: Think Deeply, Speak Confidently, Act with Character and Look Beyond Borders.

King’s College School Panama is inspected under the British Schools Overseas framework. In February 2026, the school met all BSO standards in full, providing independent assurance that its education, safeguarding, leadership and operations meet the standards expected of independent schools in the United Kingdom.

Set between one of the world’s most international cities and Panama’s tropical rainforest, King’s offers students a distinctive combination: a rigorous British education, the global perspective of the IB and an international community that prepares young people to succeed wherever their future takes them.
