Does your child need a good level of English or Spanish to learn at our British school?

No, thanks to our language immersion programme. Our Primary teacher explains it to you:

Early Years

Learning programmes

Infantil
Innovative learning

Our main objective for this educational stage is to build a solid and positive start for the first learning steps. We want our students to grow and develop in a stimulating and safe environment, full of learning opportunities that encourage them to build their confidence and reach their full potential.

Our learning environment provides natural opportunities for language acquisition alongside the development of creativity, communication skills, mathematical awareness, fine motor skills and an awareness of self and the world around us.

We focus primarily on active learning and real-life experiences in addition to more formal activities both inside and outside the classroom.

We ensure that each child can develop and progress at their own pace.

We focus on six areas of learning:

  • Personal, social and emotional

  • Communication, language and literacy

  • Mathematical development

  • Knowledge and understanding of the world

  • Physical development

  • Creative development

The building contains a range of carefully designed learning spaces, including flexible classrooms and outdoor rooftop areas.

Technology and innovative education are important tools that support our teaching methodology.

Primaria

Innovative learning

Our objective in this stage is to provide a comprehensive study program that enables students to discover and develop their own talents to be successful and achieve their potential. In order to achieve this, we offer a blend of the International Primary Curriculum and the British National Curriculum to promote a broader and more balanced curriculum.

The BNC provides an outline of core knowledge, through which teachers develop exciting and stimulating lessons to promote our students’ acquisition of knowledge, understanding and skills as part of their learning process and wider school curriculum.

The International Primary Curriculum is a truly international and up-to-date program that, through a wide range of subjects, helps students to understand the world around them, develop an inquisitive mind and their personal skills and, fully enjoy learning.

Secundaria
Innovative learning

At Secondary School, exposure to such a variety of subjects allows the pupils to sample different aspects of education and start planning their professional lives.

We follow the British National Curriculum as well as teaching the core subjects from the Spanish curriculum. The advantage of this system is that we have a broader curriculum that enables our students to experience a range of subject areas before planning their next steps.

There is also a Careers Department to give students advice and organise activities to help them understand the requirements and admissions of Higher Education Institutions.

With our Pastoral Care, programme we put special attention on our students as individuals and their needs.

Our Educational Mentor works individually with each student to focus them and motivate them to find the study methods which work best for them to be able to maximise their potential.

Sixth Form

Innovative learning

Our main objective of this educational stage is that once our students complete their Sixth Form, they are truly prepared to take up the challenge of living in an ever-changing society and to become successful global citizens. The characteristics of our curriculum are:

  • In our Sixth Form, students study for the A-Level examinations. With these, our students have direct access to universities around the world.
  • Every year we have students who achieve amongst the highest results in the world in Spain in Cambridge and Edexcel examinations.
  • The UK A-Level program allows for complete flexibility to personalise our study program for each student so they can focus on those subjects that they truly enjoy.
  • We offer extensive specialist guidance for all students to choose their A-Level subjects.
  • There is a wide variety of subjects to choose from, allowing each student to reach the highest academic level in their chosen studies.
  • Sixth Form students have the privilege of a common room to relax in during break and lunchtimes.
  • We use an A-level Mindset program to support and guide our students during registration time.

International Opportunities

ISP BUDDY EXCHANGE

We provide the opportunity to do an international exchange between ISP schools around the world. A unique learning experience for students between the ages of 14 and 17.

ISP MUN

Our students from all over the world come together
