Camino Nuevo
Camino Nuevo opened its doors March 3, 2009 as the first private educational facility recognized
by the Peruvian Ministry of Education with R.D. 2591 that serves children and young adults with special needs in Cusco.
The school serves approximately 50 children 3-24 years of age who are directly affected by a physical, intellectual or learning
disability. We work directly with dedicated families from all income levels who are interested in improving the academic,
behavioral and social skills or their children.

Teacher Training Program
The Peruvian
Ministry of Education does not have specific teaching criteria for special education. Teachers at Camino Nuevo receive
an intensive training program upon entry to the educational center with high performance expectations. They are frequently
evaluated on their teaching skills which creates a consistent and reputable learning environment for all students
