Our school

Discover Highlands School, your private, Catholic and international school in Esplugues de Llobregat, for pupils aged 1 to 18.

We are Highlands School Barcelona

With more than 20 years of experience behind our record in education, we are the only private, Catholic and international school in Barcelona. We offer an all-round education (formación integral) for pupils from 12 months old through to university, helping each pupil give their best and develop their talents and skills in an environment that promotes academic excellence and personal growth.

Mission, vision and values

Our motto, Semper Altius (always higher), means that education is a matter of walking, climbing and pushing ourselves further to reach the fullness we are called to. That is why we aim to:

  • Give pupils an understanding of the globalised world they live in, so that mastering other languages opens up an international future for them.
  • Develop pupils who are recognised as excellent people as well as excellent professionals.
  • Educate pupils who are role models and leaders who transform society.
  • Be a benchmark for families looking for an all-round education for their children.

The only private, Catholic and international school in Barcelona

Our school is the only private, Catholic and international school in Barcelona, and we offer an all-round education. We combine a solid academic education with a deep Christian ethos, creating an environment where faith and knowledge come together to form well-rounded people.

We are accredited as a Cambridge International School and we are an examination centre for English and French.
