Curriculum
The
International School of Spain ( ISPS) is an authorized
International Baccalaureate Primary Years
Programme (IBPYP) World School. We continue to develop inquiring,
knowledgeable and caring young people. These are schools
that share a common philosophy—a commitment to high
quality, challenging, international education that ISPS
believes is important for our students.
Our school curriculum is
challenging and encourages our students to become active
and compassionate lifelong learners. Our students are
making academic progress each year and we are very proud
of that! We firmly believe that we are “preparing
tomorrow’s leaders today” by having high
expectations and a staff of highly qualified and caring
teachers.
The diversity of the student body provides a richness
that allows students to become more globally aware.
Art, music, foreign language, computer technology,
guidance and physical education provide a balance for
whole person learners. Students are taught the
necessary skills to prepare them for a college
preparatory secondary education and for international
schools elsewhere in the world. Our program is
equivalent to quality, private, independent schools
around the world. As an international school, we also
focus on preparing students to be concerned and
responsible world citizens.
