What is Newland School?
Newland School, branded as Colegio Newland (registered legal name: Colegio NWL), is now NWL Australian School: a private bilingual school in Querétaro and San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, founded in 2009. The school keeps the same educational project and serves more than 2,500 families across 5 campuses, from maternal (age 2) through high school, with English immersion, the Knotion project-based methodology (no traditional homework), Philosophy for Children, and the Yo Soy Líder NWL leadership program designed by Tec de Monterrey. It holds Cognia international accreditation.
Where is NWL Australian School and what levels does it offer?
NWL Australian School operates 5 campuses: Juriquilla, Milenio, Corregidora and Zibatá in Querétaro, and one campus in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato. All campuses run from maternal through middle school; high school (Prepa NWL) is offered at the Corregidora and Zibatá campuses.
Every campus shares the same bilingual model, so a family can stay with one school from age 2 through high school.
What makes NWL Australian School different?
Three concrete elements set NWL apart: it is the only school with the Yo Soy Líder leadership program designed exclusively by Tec de Monterrey; it uses Knotion, replacing traditional homework with interdisciplinary projects; and it builds critical thinking from preschool through Philosophy for Children.
In middle school, students earn a Dual International Certification and Cambridge certifications; in high school, the Life Project model pairs each student with personal mentors.
What accreditations back NWL Australian School?
NWL Australian School holds Cognia international accreditation (recognized in 88+ countries) and partnerships with Tec de Monterrey, Universidad Mondragón México and Hokku Academy.
These accreditations validate both the pedagogy and the technology infrastructure, and give international recognition to students' certifications.
