Europa International is a private, non-denominational, co-educational
school founded in 1995. The modern purpose-built premises include
62 classrooms, three science laboratories, two gymnasiums, library,
art room, music room, 500 seat theatre, full dining facilities, football
pitch, two heated swimming pools, multi sports hall and grounds. The
school is located in a residential area of Barcelona, 15 km from the
city centre.
At Europa International School, all educational levels are taught
from 12 months to 18 years of age. The academic programme is international.
The teaching is based on an ongoing relationship between parents,
students and educators. Within the school, the current curriculum
takes into consideration each student's skills and preferences and
students are educated so that they can complete the new "Bachilleratos"
(Spanish System) and the International Baccalaureate which is planned
for the future.
One of the priorities of the school is for students to be fluent
in Spanish, Catalan and English and possess a high level of French
and German by the time they finish their education. All teachers
hold university degrees and/or teaching certificates and have a
wide range of teaching experience. Pupils are taught approximately
80% of the school day through English from the ages of three to
six. In the primary and secondary Schools, this percentage is approximately
50%. The education is multi-cultural with native teaching staff
and exchange programmes with students from different linguistic
and cultural backgrounds. The student body comes from over forty-two
different nationalities.
Provision is made for a wide range of cultural activities among
which drama, choir, ballet, dance and orchestra figure prominently.
Pupils are also offered a chance to participate in a variety of
sports activities. Europa International School strives for academic
achievement, competence, clear structure, exploration and self-education
as an essential foundation for a successful future.
