Palacio de Granda Holds Virtual Open Day for Families on 29 October

Palacio de Granda Holds Virtual Open Day for Families on 29 October

The Virtual Open Day is a live virtual tour. The school designed it so that families can discover the school at their own pace and raise any doubts they have about its education. Families are encouraged to arrive with their questions and with the things that matter most to them in the education of their child.

The session is open to families considering Palacio de Granda for their children, whether they live close to the campus in Granda, near Oviedo, or elsewhere in Asturias and beyond. Because it takes place online, nobody needs to travel to attend.

The 29 October session is the first of three virtual open days on the school's calendar. Two more will follow at the same time of day, from 10:00 to 11:00, on Thursday 26 November and on Friday 18 December. Families who cannot join this week can therefore choose a later date.

Palacio de Granda teaches children from nursery age through to the International Baccalaureate. Bilingual learning starts at the age of one, and from Year 3 pupils add a third language, choosing between French and German while English continues through daily immersion. Primary classes use the International Primary Curriculum, mathematics follows the Singapore method, and the school is an Eco-School holding the Green Flag.

How to attend

Date: Thursday 29 October.

Time: 10:00 to 11:00, Spanish time (the clocks in Spain go back on 25 October, so this is CET).

Format: live online session, so there is no need to travel to the campus.

Who it is for: families who want to learn about Palacio de Granda and ask their questions. The school suggests coming with questions and with what matters to you in your child's education.

Registration: families can sign up from Palacio de Granda's profile on International School Advisor.

About Palacio de Granda

Palacio de Granda is a private, secular, co-educational international school in Asturias, on a campus in Aldea El Llugarín, Granda. It follows the Spanish curriculum, enriched with International Baccalaureate inquiry projects, and combines it with bilingual and multilingual learning. The school reports around 700 students, 69 teachers and a ratio of ten students per teacher.

The school is an official Cambridge examination centre, where students can earn English certificates, and it also prepares them for DELF diplomas in French and German certificates from the Goethe-Institut. Its campus offers on-site boarding, school transport across much of Asturias, a dining room with its own kitchen and activities that range from horse riding and swimming to robotics and music. Palacio de Granda belongs to ISP, the International Schools Partnership, and its students take part in trips and joint projects with other ISP schools around the world.

What this means for families

For families in Asturias, an online open day is a practical first step. It lets parents see how the school presents itself and ask about stages, languages and daily life without taking time off work to visit, and it helps to shape a shortlist before a visit in person.
