Esta colegio era fantástica y mejoraba cada año. Ellos manejaron COVID bien y luego un nuevo director llegó y que han tenido un efecto perjudicial para el cole Los buenos profesores se han ido y han sido sustituidos por profesores sin experiencia o por profesores online, especialmente en matemáticas. Ahora deberían avergonzarse de lo que ofrecen por el dinero que cobran. También tienen un gran problema con el acoso escolar en el que los acosadores no tienen consecuencias y los niños acosados no son creídos. Si pudiera le daría una calificación de menos estrellas. Es seguro decir que mi hijo ha dejado y comenzó una nueva colegio con maestros eficaces que están en el edificio.

I was happy with the school, only the food was really bad, but when we moved back home they asked me if my children had been in school for the last two years. The level was very poor. So the Spanish experience did not turn out to be as idyllic as we thought because of the low standard of the school, and our children suffered from it on their return.

This school has a great atmosphere and a 'can-do' attitude. The teachers are highly dedicated to their subjects and are focused on individual students. Overall my experience at this school was highly enjoyable

We are really happy with the school. My daughter started last year and she is looking forward to coming back every day!!. Her English is improving a lot and she is really motivated. The children in the school are lovely, she is making good friends. We really appreciate the close relationship that we can have with the school, any time we had a question or an issue they always had answered us quickly.

I don't recommend this school at all! Our child was bullied and came home with scratches and wounds several times. Each morning they dreaded going to school. The worst was the reaction of the school staff when we told them, they dismissed it as "children's things" and looked only for the school's own interests. We believe they feared annoying other parents and losing pupils (and their money!) by taking action. Even though the school has a bullying policy in place, it's all just a box-ticking exercise... just like many other things that look great on the surface, but when you look deeper, are not. Other comments about the school: - Some teachers are competent but overworked. - School dinners are a dreadful sight and they are mandatory. The school has been inspected several times for food safety. While they will tell you they are making improvements, do not believe them, it's a problem that has been going on for a long time. Of course, the menus look good on paper, but they don't match reality. - Old, run-down facilities and dirty common areas, especially toilets. - Ineffective leadership that mainly cared about 'looking good' in front of parents without making real changes.

We are really happy with the school, our kid can speak English fluently and she is learning a lot. She loves going to school. At the beginning of the year the food was poor but now she is eating better every day. The school really cares about her and what she needs.

As others have said, the costs are high compared to other schools in the area, the level mediocre and the quality of the food, appalling. They will also accept any child despite their level of English, which holds back the rest of the class. Bullying amongst the older children and school unable to address it.

The costs are around 1000 per month. The food is extremely bad. They have 1 or 2 hours of PE a week and music classes are bad, they do not have instruments. A primary teacher had a bad with some friends so he does the guitar classes but you need to pay extra for them. Teachers are good but exhausted, academic results mediocre, not bad but not excellent either. It is an ok school for a year or 2 as expat.

Excellent international school , after testing some schools ; it is maybe the best international option in south of Spain. Very good academics , values and good GCSEs and A levels general performance. My only concern is the students food ( not good at all ), they should address this problem. Anyway, I strongly recommend this place for international education.

My children attend this school and we are very happy with their education here. Even, our oldest son studied year13 last year and he has had excellent grades. He has been able to attend a good international university abroad.

El mejor colegio inglés de la provincia. Profesores nativos altamente cualificados . Muy buenos resultados académicos. Pertenece a un grupo inversor internacional que posee colegios en todo el mundo y permite intercambio de sus alumnos con facilidad.
