Directory of Cayman Businesses - S
Schools, colleges and universities
Government-run public schools tend to follow a British curriculum and are mainly only to Caymanians; most expat children can not attend as there aren't enough resources and funding. The exception is for children of employees that are working on contract to Government; fees are about CI$200 - CI$300 per term. Private schools tend to follow a US Curriculum. The private school choices are outstanding! Not only do the private schools offer a high standard of education, but they offer a diversity which would be difficult to find in the US. There are children and teachers from all over the world. Some Caymanian parents send their children to the private schools, if they can afford it, because they offer quality education and diversity. Private school fees will set you back between CI$4,000 and CI$5,500 per year. Many of the schools are affiliated with local churches and have a strong religious element in their curriculum. There are some statistics on Education and Literacy in Cayman at http://www.nationmaster.com/country/cj/Education There is a "Cayman Island Education Portal" with links to some schools at http://www.italic.ky/lv/district.nsf but many of the details don't appear to have been updated for three years. However it may be useful to get e-mail/phone contact details.
