The Olive Tree School provides dynamic, personalised education for 3-16 year olds. Two highly experienced teachers founded The Olive Tree in a cosy ground floor of a house in Sitges to provide a school that was warm, caring and with high academic expectations. Now, many years later, we have spacious premises with beautiful grassy gardens, a science lab, two ICT suites, an airy art studio, two large, full libraries, two outdoor classrooms, two thriving vegetable plots and an indoor and an outdoor theatre. However, we have remained true to our original values. Those centre on high expectations for all children leading to academic excellence. We guide every pupil on their path to developing critical thinking, creativity and care for others. Our dedicated team of teachers are British-government trained, and employ a variety of teaching styles in the classroom. We create an environment where children experiment with new concepts, and follow their curiosity. Discovery learning and free exchange of ideas are essential to us. Come and meet us!

Information about the school-family relationship
Our school uniform is simple, economical and very comfortable. We believe uniform protects children and young adults from the pressures of fast fashion and prioritises active learning, collaboration and the message that what is most important is not the surface but what lies within us.

We welcome children from 3 to 16, following the UK National Curriculum, but interpreting it with creativity, active learning and pupil-centred methodologies.
In the early years, we are influenced by Reggio Emilia and Montessori; discovery learning, garden and outdoor exploration, and personalised provision.
In the primary years, we have a lovely programme of project-based learning, where the child learns through high-quality historical projects that involve the arts, literature and drama. Multi-sensory learnind makes for deeper learning.
In secondary, we encourage critical thinking, debate and deep exploration of global issues.
