Unidad Educativa "Bolívar", Secondary educational institution in Tulcán, Ecuador.

Unidad Educativa Bolívar is a secondary school in Tulcán that features sports facilities, science laboratories, and recreation areas designed to support student learning across multiple subjects. The campus includes various buildings and outdoor spaces organized for classroom instruction, physical education, and practical scientific work.

President Eloy Alfaro founded this institution on May 19, 1896, establishing it as Ecuador's first secular educational center during the liberal revolution period. The school emerged at a time of significant political and social transformation in the country.

The school is named after Simón Bolívar, the leader of Latin American emancipation from the Spanish Empire. Its original name, Colegio "Bolívar", changed as national education reforms and mergers with smaller schools formed its current campuses, now called Unidad Educativa "Bolívar". Since 2011 the specialised bachillerato tracks were replaced by the unified general bachillerato.

The institute runs two shifts: secondary classes in the daytime and higher technology studies at night, teaching around 1,500 students in total. Its campus holds a semi-Olympic pool, an archaeological museum and sports areas for football, basketball, tennis and volleyball. As a working public school, arrange any visit in advance.

The school's name honours Simón Bolívar, the leader of Latin American emancipation from the Spanish Empire. It opened as Colegio "Bolívar" and was renamed Unidad Educativa "Bolívar" after merging with several smaller schools that now form its campuses.
