International environment

House System

Throughout the year, House Days and friendly competitions allow students to earn points for their House, foster camaraderie, and feel proud of their belonging. This valuable Anglo-Saxon tradition strengthens community spirit and helps students forge lasting bonds across different stages.

Public Speech Programme

From the age of three, our students begin to develop essential communication and leadership skills through our Show and Tell program, Public Speech Program, theater, and debates. These activities foster confidence, vocal projection, nonverbal communication, and persuasive speaking. Through theater and acting, students hone their oral and physical expression. They not only create and perform their own plays, but also enjoy professional theater productions, which are brought to the school to foster creativity, collaboration, and stage presence from an early age.

International cultural events

We celebrate global traditions like Thanksgiving, St. Patrick’s Day, Book Week, Jeans for Genes, Science Day, and International Day, bringing Anglo-Saxon culture into our classrooms.

Volunteering, community service, and leadership

Leadership through service is fostered through missions, charitable events, and volunteer programs, fostering empathy and initiative. We encourage students to participate in meaningful charitable initiatives throughout the year. From donation drives to awareness campaigns, these activities foster empathy, social responsibility, and a spirit of service, helping students grow as compassionate and active citizens.

Language learning

The program fosters early language development through strong phonemic awareness in a stimulating environment. English immersion begins at 50% at age 1, increases to 100% at age 2, and continues at 60% between ages 3 and 5. The Cambridge curriculum continues in primary school with 60% of subjects taught in English, assessed with Progression Tests and Checkpoints. Early literacy is supported with Word Study and oral expression with Public Speech. In secondary school, the curriculum continues with 60% English, preparing students for the IGCSEs and certifications such as Cambridge English (C1 and C2) and DELF French (B2).

With high levels of English immersion and a solid academic foundation, our students are well prepared for university in Spain and abroad.
