Upcoming Open Days
At El Altillo International School we prepare our students to face the challenges and opportunities of a society that expects them to be confident, competent, and capable of unlocking their true potential. We work at enriching students' personalities at key ages. This directly influences their confidence, motivation and commitment. They will learn more than just facts, they will acquire skills and values that make for an exceptional youth. Our goal is for our students to achieve excellence by kindling their passion for learning, bolstering their ability to think critically, and boosting their own natural creativity. Education in values is one of the fundamental pillars of Laude El Altillo School's approach. Our students learn to appreciate individuality, difference and what binds us together, internationally and globally.

Information about the dining hall of the El Altillo International School
We prepare over 850 meals each day in our own on-site facilities, all under strict health and safety controls. Our dining service has an educational purpose: we do not simply serve food, we teach students to eat healthily.
Our menus are varied and promote the consumption of fruit, vegetables and fish. We take great care in catering for students with allergies or intolerances, and we also offer a vegetarian option on request.
For one-year-old children, we provide specially designed menus, supporting families with the introduction of solid foods from 10 months onwards. Our Medical Department plans the menus each month, and in Secondary, students can choose between two different main courses.
Knowing how to behave at the table is just as important as what we eat. Through our "Good Manners Table", students learn courtesy and respect. Primary and Secondary pupils take part in this experience on a rotating basis.
