Our model, inspired by the educational principles of the “Institución Libre de Enseñanza”, aims to “avoid disturbing the periods of childhood and adolescence, foreshadowing in them human divisions”, and it assimilates the latest educational and didactic principles given by the latest research in neuroscience.On the basis of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, we stand up for the freedom of education, equal rights and respect for human diversity.

Absolute respect and focus on the students, with a child- centred teaching-learning approach and active learning techniques, with special attention to individual personalities and their multiple intelligences.

Our priority is to create an affective environment from infancy to university. Students grow and learn in an emotionally safe and creative atmosphere because infancy and adolescence are happy days that will always be remembered.

Each individual student should be the protagonist in their own learning journey; researching, creating, discovering and learning.

We encourage students to take pride in the job well-done. We teach self-confidence and promote the sense of duty, loyalty, curiosity and creativity which are the foundations of traditional European thought.

International pedagogic orientation is one of our identifying traits.
We offer a range of programmes: American methodology in Early Years (1-6 year-olds), all the International Baccalaureate programmes (3-18 year-olds) and the U.S. College Preparatory School Diploma (14-18 year-olds).
