<p><b>Markham College</b> is a school in <a href="/pages/w/105967562770218">Lima</a>, <a href="/pages/w/111838148832983">Peru</a>. Founded by British expatriates, Markham promotes a mixture of British and Peruvian education supported by a set of traditional relationships between staff and students. Markham is an independent, non profit-making, co-educational, bi-lingual, secular, day school of some 2,000 students aged 4–18. Its students fulfill the Peruvian national curriculum, as well as the <a href="/pages/w/143762395636493">IGCSE</a> (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) program from the University of Cambridge. Many students subsequently enrol in the IB (<a href="/pages/w/104141449621928">International Baccalaureate</a>) Diploma Programme. The school was named after <a href="/pages/w/245669745444673">Sir Clements R. Markham</a> (1838–1916). Students are known as Markhamians, while alumni are identified as Old Markhamians.</p><p>Approximately 80% of the staff of over 250 teachers are recruited internationally. Currently, average class sizes vary from 21.8 in P6, (The first year of Secondary) to 11.5 in the last year of IB.</p><p>Beginning in 2001, Markham has implemented the use of laptop computers as an educational tool for students in S2 (the 8th grade) and beyond. While highly controversial at its inception, it has grown to become a very successful program whose results are reflected in the ever increasing performance of Markham students in their international examinations. Generally there is a high level of technological facilities available and Smartboards and data projectors are the norm in most classrooms.</p><p>The college is currently starting a multimillion dollar development programme which includes a new state of the art science block, modern sports facilities and an Arts complex for Music, Drama and the Visual Arts.</p><p>In 2004 the school became part of <a href="/pages/w/108508339173781">Round Square</a>, an internationally recognized organization of schools which follows the IDEALS of <a href="/pages/w/113001425381467">Kurt Hahn</a>, and Markhamian delegations have attended Round Square conferences both regionally and globally ever since. The school is also a member of the <a href="/pages/w/133520793354289">G20 Schools</a> Group.</p>
