Schedule: 7:15am – 2:45pm
When we talk about academic education in Primary School at Destiny School, we are not referring solely to subjects or content, but rather to a comprehensive process that accompanies children during a key stage of their intellectual, emotional, and spiritual development.
In primary school, children are forming the way they learn, think, express themselves, and relate to knowledge. That is why Destiny School offers a balanced education that integrates knowledge, skills, and values, ensuring that learning has meaning and purpose.
Bilingual education: English – Spanish
At this stage, bilingualism ceases to be merely a form of stimulation and becomes a real learning tool.
Students strengthen their use of English and Spanish in a progressive, natural, and contextualized way, allowing them to communicate, understand, and express themselves in both languages without losing their cultural identity or pride in being Colombian.
This prepares children to interact with the world from an early age, broadening their vision and future opportunities.
Teaching for understanding
Teaching for understanding seeks to help students deeply understand what they learn, rather than mechanically memorizing information.
Through this approach, children:
- Understand why the content is important
- Relate learning to their daily lives
- Explain ideas in their own words
- Apply what they have learned in different contexts
This type of teaching strengthens academic confidence, critical thinking, and student confidence in learning.
Skills training
In addition to acquiring knowledge, primary school develops skills that enable students to deal with real-life situations.
- Problem solving
- Teamwork
- Effective communication
- Autonomy and responsibility
- Decision-making skills
In this way, children not only learn academic content, but also develop skills that will serve them well inside and outside the classroom.

Bible Training
Biblical education is a fundamental pillar of primary education at Destiny School. Christian principles are integrated into daily school life, shaping children's character and guiding their way of thinking, acting, and relating to others. Through the Word of God, students strengthen values such as respect, honesty, responsibility, love for others, and faith, building a solid foundation for their personal growth.
International agreements
International agreements broaden students' worldview, allowing them to learn about other cultures, methodologies, and ways of learning. This fosters open-mindedness, respect for diversity, and a broader understanding of the global environment, without losing the identity and values formed at home and at school.
Calendar B
Calendar B organizes the school year in line with international education systems, facilitating academic continuity and providing greater flexibility for families. This type of calendar allows for clear and structured planning of the educational process throughout the year.
Mixed education
Mixed education promotes healthy coexistence between boys and girls, fostering respect, collaboration, and the building of balanced relationships from an early age. This environment prepares students to interact naturally and respectfully in different social and academic contexts.
In addition to academic training, at Destiny School we deeply care about the emotional well-being of our students. We educate children in an environment of freedom and love, where each student is recognized as a unique being, listened to in their needs, and closely accompanied during their growth process. This constant accompaniment generates confidence, emotional security, and a sense of belonging.
