History
It was founded in 1963 by Edward Foulkes, a Welshman who worked in Mexico in the publishing business and as a teacher for the British Council, and by Ronald Stech, a Canadian who became the school's first administrator.Шаблон:Cn Foulkes, who had previously founded Greengates School, had left by 1961, selling his share to Henry Coehlo.
In 1985, it moved from San Ángel to its present site in a residential area close to the forested hills of Desierto de los Leones. At the same time, it achieved its bicultural status through incorporation with the Mexican education authority.
In 1995 the Edron became an IB world school.[2]
In September 2014, the Edron Academy was inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI). The findings of the inspection were positive.[3] The Edron Academy became a COBIS (Council of British International Schools) accredited member school in 2019.[4]
