San Andrea School is an independent, co-educational, mixed ability school educating over 1100 students aged 2 to 16 years from Pre-Nursery to Grade 12. Considered one of the leading schools in Malta, this school has been at the forefront of initiating future-oriented learning methodologies, promoting extracurricular programmes and ensuring the best quality teachers and staff.
It was founded in 1992 at Sedqa, Independence Avenue, Naxxar, by the Parents Foundation of Education, who also founded the San Anton School. At the time, it was composed of three classes separated into three separate buildings: Early School, Middle School, and Senior School.
The school emphasises on a balanced academic curriculum that also considers the students’ well-being, individuality and self-confidence.
