Online School & Homeschool in Guadalajara

Online school and international curriculum in Guadalajara

For Guadalajara and Jalisco families — Mexico's tech capital, where morning classes fit a remote-work household as neatly as a vespertino timetable.

Live online Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge A-Level, Pearson Edexcel International, IB Diploma Programme, and American Curriculum with Advanced Placement (AP) for Guadalajara families. Guadalajara is Mexico's technology capital — a software, semiconductor, and electronics cluster that has drawn global firms and a substantial international remote-work community, alongside a strong university and medical sector and, an hour south, the long-established expatriate belt around Lake Chapala. Its international schooling is decent and concentrated. We teach in the Mexican morning from Nairobi, which suits vespertino students and remote-work households alike, and we run alongside a school holding RVOE rather than claiming to replace it.

Challenges Guadalajara families face

International school provision is concentrated and priced at the upper end of the local market.
A large remote-work and expatriate community arriving faster than places open.
Education is compulsory through media superior, so there is no post-compulsory window.
Our teaching lands in the Mexican morning, nine hours ahead, fixed.
Private schools need RVOE for official validity, and Smartious does not hold it.

Why Guadalajara families choose Smartious

Computing depth for Mexico's tech capital: Cambridge A-Level Computer Science, Mathematics, and Further Mathematics suit the sector that defines Guadalajara.
Built for remote-work households: A family that already structures its own day finds a morning teaching block easier to build around than a fixed school run.
Reaches the Chapala belt: The expatriate communities around Ajijic and Chapala are an hour from the city's schools; live delivery removes the commute entirely.
Morning classes that fit the vespertino shift: Our block lands in the Mexican morning, free for every afternoon-shift student.
What we are, stated plainly: No RVOE, no claim to official validity — we work alongside a Mexican school that has it.

The national framework applies in Jalisco: education is compulsory through media superior under Article 3, private schools require RVOE for official validity, and Smartious does not hold RVOE — we work alongside a school that does. We are not aware of an established parental-choice home-education route; confirm with the SEP and the state education authority. For international remote-work and Chapala-belt families the supplementary configuration works particularly well, since the morning teaching block fits a household that already sets its own schedule.

Smartious delivers to Jalisco families online; the live programme is complete without in-person supplementation.

Live online via Smartious LMS in the Mexican morning on a fixed nine-hour offset, with every session recorded.

Guadalajara is Mexico's technology capital — a software, semiconductor, and electronics cluster with a large international remote-work community, a strong university and medical sector, and the Lake Chapala expatriate belt an hour south. Mexico runs CST (UTC-6), nine hours behind Nairobi, so our teaching lands in the Mexican morning.

Common questions from Guadalajara families

We live around Lake Chapala — is a daily run into Guadalajara avoidable?

For the teaching, entirely. Live classes reach Ajijic and Chapala identically, with examinations sat at authorised centres a few times a year.

Can our child take Computer Science at A-Level?

Yes, and it is a common choice in Guadalajara for obvious reasons. It runs live in small groups alongside Mathematics and Further Mathematics.
