History
Members of Queen Elizabeth's elementary school, including the principal, some professors and a group of businessmen, decided to create a bilingual non-religious private high school affiliated to National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).
The Anglo Mexican HS, CUAM HS was inaugurated on September 4, 1974, in the residential San José Insurgentes neighborhood, in Mexico City, starting at that time, with 108 students, most of them Queen Elizabeth's School graduates. Ten years later, the school moved to a new location in Las Aguilas neighbourhood in Álvaro Obregón", which was designed to host larger facilities. In 1985, the first regional school was launched in the resort town of Cuernavaca; CUAM Morelos, started with over 120 students, rapidly consolidating as an important school in the city. In 1989, after a State's government invitation to improve academic standards and increase college oriented competitive students, CUAM Acapulco was inaugurated, serving a population of over 150 students in high school and adding a Jr. high school level for the first time.
In 1999, CUAM Águilas was transformed into CEAM Mexico junior high school. The fourth regional CUAM was also opened in the city of Cancún, which offered kindergarten through high school, K-12, through an alliance with Centro Escolar BALAM. In 2004, CUAM acquired a property formerly owned by Mexican comedian Mario Moreno "Cantinflas", which became CEAM Morelos Jr. High School, just across the street from CUAM Morelos.
In 2009, CUAM Mexico migrated to a new facility next to CEAM Mexico, in Calzada de Las Aguilas 350, leaving behind its traditional location for the last 33 years in the street of Sagredo.

It carried one of the highest regional official rankings and consistently won Guerrero's State academic Olympics.
In 2012, CUAM acquired Queen Elizabeth School, to integrate Kindergarten and Elementary school, now including K-12 grade in Mexico City.
