Parents want nothing but the best for their children. That is why finding the perfect school is a big responsibility. You can control what happens in the house but what happens in the school is beyond your power.
The location of the school also plays a part in your child's education. ETON INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL recognizes that aspect. For students who want to be surrounded by arts and culture, ETON INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL opens a new branch inside the prestigious grounds of the Cultural Center of the Philippines.
ETON INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL CCP is the first world-class learning institution located at the CCP complex and stands proudly among Manila's famous landmarks. You will find the Folk Arts Theater in its north, the Coconut Palace on the east, and is bordered by the Manila Bay where you can witness the world's best sunset.

"ETON is the school of the future where learning happens beyond the four walls of the classroom. It is a place where kids will feel safe to learn, grow, and multiply their talents exponentially," said Ms. Jacqueline Marzan-Tolentino, Eton International School Directress.
ETON has three pioneering programs:
- Center for the Talented and Gifted (pre-schoolers)
- Center for Leadership and Performing Arts (grade school)
- Center for Technology and Innovation (high school)
"What sets ETON apart is how we nurture the leadership potential in each child. Our mantra is every child is a leader and every child can be a hero waiting to be unleashed. We take time out to know about the child's strength and weaknesses so that we can match our teaching style to our students' learning style. This allows the students to learn faster and better. ETON INTERNATIONAL family culture allows students to grow and create better relationships in their family and community. It only takes love to break all barriers in the mind, heart and soul. With our multiple local and international programs, each child is given the chance to find his gifts, strengthen their resiliency, and build their confidence," added Tolentino.
THE ETON EDUCATION
ETON INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL philosophy is that “Every child is born with Royal Dignity.”
“We believe the gifts and calling of each child is irrevocable. A child’s worth is built in. It is our mission to open their mind to possibilities, strengthen their competency and skills and inculcate values that will set them for life,” she adds.
Eton’s motto is Artes (Heart), Scientia (Mind) and Intelligentia (Will or Spirit).
“Every child is nurtured to inspire, to innovate and to lead a life in honor of God and service to humanity. Every Etonian leads with humility, courage and heart,” Tolentino said.
Eton prides itself of its small class size that allows them to focus on the development of each child’s multiple intelligence especially in the crucial foundation years. Tolentino describes this as strengthening their roots to allow the children to be resilient as they grow and bloom and ready to conquer the world.
