[edit] History
Makati Gospel Learning Center (MGLC) and New Life Foundation Learning Center (NLFLC) were both established in 1991, to give a Christian education. The school's foundation day is celebrated every July 3.
Eventually the schools were merged.[1]
In 2001, MGC New Life celebrated its 10th year anniversary, and the school presented the musical play, God Uses Kids.
Both in 2007 and 2008, MGC New Life's fourth year high school students (batch 4 and batch 5) topped the Taguig City chapter of the National Career Assessment Examination.
In February 2008, MGC New Life celebrated its 17th year with the musical play, The Greatest Stories Ever Told at the AFP Theater.
[edit] Curriculum
Pre-school
The Pre-school Department, running from Pre-nursery to Kindergarten 2, uses the curriculum of the Institute for Foundational Learning for its English language and Geography curriculum.
Elementary School
The elementary school level has adopted the Singapore Curriculum for its Science and Math subjects in 2008.
High School
The High School level mainly uses the A Beka textbooks for their Science and Social Studies classes.
[edit] International Accreditation
2007 saw MGC New Life being granted 7-year international accreditation from the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) and the Commission on International Trans-Regional Accreditation (CITA), a join venture that is the first for both organizations. The reorganization of CITA caused MGC New Life's accreditation to be absorbed into AdvancED, thus making it accredited by the North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI).
MGC New Life is the first school in the Philippines to be accredited by AdvancED and NCA CASI and the second school in the Philippines accredited by ACSI.[2]
