International students benefit from a fully developed program delivered by B.C. government certified teachers in our new state-of-the-art schools with the latest equipment and technology. Coquitlam School District is nestled in the mountains between the Pacific Ocean and the Fraser River, including the cities of Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Port Moody and the villages of Anmore and Belcarra. Our scenic location, proximity to Vancouver and Whistler, beautiful new secondary school facilities, variety of course offerings, high academic standards, and the safety of our community provide a very desirable location for an international education program. Our location is also close to Simon Fraser University, Douglas College and the University of British Columbia.
