Qualities and characteristics best defining the school

Each campus provides a multilingual learning environment, fostering linguistic diversity from an early age. In the Infant stage, students are introduced to French and German, promoting global awareness.

The curriculum developed by the school takes into account the Spanish Ministry of Education directives, as stipulated under current legislation. However, it also devotes 50% of the school day to the learning of English and complements this personalised programme that guarantees a solid, perfectly bilingual grounding.

The school's educational programme focuses on the development and promotion of the capacities and skills of its students: comprehension and verbal expression, numerical calculus, reflective thought, memory, attention, physical skills, personality development and social behaviour. Colegio Brains provides tools for the organization of its work, strategies to follow and appropriate study techniques. It also encourages students to develop their own personal criteria, initiative, and creativity.
