Building a learning nation

The Cayman Islands are gaining recognition the world over for building world-class learning spaces which reflect both 21st-Century thinking and the islands’ rich and unique culture. Here you can share in the progress of the most innovative, exciting and highly publicised capital programme for education ever undertaken in the Caribbean. These are the reflections in real time of those who are making it happen and those whose lives will be touched; educators, parents, students, government staff, architects, planners, and providers of the services students will ultimately benefit from. The world is watching this one, so leave your comments, link to the site and get in touch if you want to know more.

The new George Town Primary School site

An important part of building the new campuses across Grand Cayman is to record all the stages that take place on the journey towards their completion. The site for the cutting edge 21st century designed new George Town Primary School is clearly shown in the photographs here - it is totally land locked so site photographs can really only be taken from the air.

The photograph below clearly shows the historic 'rock hole' which will become an environmental feature of the new school and is cleverly incorporated within the design.

The photographs were taken from the doorless Cayman helicopter by Gareth Long, Strategic Development Advisor (Education)
