PRIMARY \u2013 PRIMARY YEARS PROGRAMME (PYP)
\nIn Early Years and Primary, International Aravaca combines the Spanish national curriculum with the prestigious International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme (PYP), offering young learners a holistic education from their earliest years.
\nThis programme focuses on the full development of the child, viewing students as inquirers both inside and outside the classroom, nurturing their natural curiosity and their ability to explore and learn from the world around them.
\nThe IB Learner Profile promotes values such as respect for oneself, others and the environment, encouraging active engagement with the community. At International Aravaca, implementing this approach from the early stages makes a meaningful difference in shaping responsible, reflective global citizens from a young age.
\nIn addition, the school is proud to be the only authorised PYP school in the Aravaca, Pozuelo and Majadahonda area, consolidating its position as a benchmark for quality education. The PYP stands out for developing critical thinking skills, stimulating curiosity and preparing students to solve complex problems\u2014essential skills for future challenges.
\nSECONDARY \u2013 MIDDLE YEARS PROGRAMME (MYP)
\nAt Secondary level, International Aravaca enriches the Spanish curriculum with the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (MYP), for which it has been an authorised school since the 2022\u20132023 academic year.
\nThis programme, unique in the Pozuelo\u2013Aravaca area, promotes the development of essential skills for students during a key stage of growth, such as critical thinking, adaptability and the ability to solve complex problems within an international and multicultural framework.
\nIn addition, from Year 8 (2\u00ba ESO), students have the opportunity to pursue the High School Diploma (Dual Diploma) in collaboration with Acad\u00e9mica. This programme enables students to graduate with both the Spanish Diploma and the United States High School Diploma, a qualification highly valued by universities worldwide. Since 2018, more than 72 International Aravaca students have completed this programme, positioning the school as a recognised leader in its implementation and among the top 300 schools in Spain offering this diploma.
\nBACCALAUREATE \u2013 DIPLOMA PROGRAMME (DP)
\nAt Baccalaureate level, International Aravaca offers students two excellent educational pathways: the Spanish National Baccalaureate and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP). The school is the only one in the area authorised to offer the International Baccalaureate across all stages, reinforcing its role as a reference in international and personalised education.
\nBoth pathways are enriched by international programmes and academic competitions that broaden students\u2019 educational experience. Students also continue studying a third language, reinforcing multilingualism as one of the school\u2019s core pillars.
\nAdditionally, interested students may also pursue the High School Diploma (Dual Diploma) in collaboration with Acad\u00e9mica, graduating with dual certification: the Spanish Diploma and the U.S. Diploma. This unique offer expands students\u2019 academic and professional opportunities and reflects the school\u2019s strong commitment to global, excellence-driven education.
\nTEACHING LOAD
\nThe teaching load at each stage consists of 35 weekly periods, with enrichment across all subject areas and a higher number of teaching hours than those established by the Madrid Regional Government (CAM). This is particularly notable in English as a Foreign Language, as well as in the inclusion of school-specific subjects such as: Swimming in Early Years and Years 1 and 2 of Primary, Eco-School, Logic and Mathematics, Entrepreneurship, the PYP Exhibition in Primary, and the Personal Project and Theatre Project in Year 10 (4\u00ba Secondary).
\nOne of the fundamental pillars of International Aravaca is its strong Social Action Plan, which actively involves students across all educational stages. In line with International Baccalaureate values, the school encourages students to engage with their community, fostering empathy, solidarity and social responsibility as an integral part of their education.
\nThe school has established itself as a benchmark both within and beyond its community thanks to its outstanding work in community service projects. To this end, it collaborates closely with a wide range of institutions, foundations and NGOs, including: Idea Libre, Red Cross, C\u00e1ritas, Fundaci\u00f3n Lo Que De Verdad Importa (LQDVI), Asociaci\u00f3n Ayuda al Pueblo Sirio, Robert Kennedy Foundation, Ay\u00fadame 3D, Fundaci\u00f3n Aladina, Madrid Food Bank and the TELVA Solidarity Awards.<\/p>\n","extra_curricula_description":"
One of the key differentiators of International Aravaca is the breadth and quality of its extracurricular offer. Nearly half of the student body participates in these activities, reflecting a strong culture of engagement, talent development and enrichment beyond the classroom.
\nThrough International Schools Partnership (ISP), students have access to a wide range of international programmes and challenges that foster multicultural understanding, multilingual communication and the development of essential life skills. These include virtual and cultural exchange programmes, international arts and filmmaking projects, Model United Nations, chess competitions, STEM initiatives and social impact programmes focused on sustainability and global citizenship.
\nStudents also take part in national ISP events such as Young Voices, where selected students deliver inspiring talks, strengthening communication skills, confidence and public speaking in an international context.
\nIn addition, International Aravaca offers a broad programme of sports, cultural, artistic and instrumental extracurricular activities, available both during school hours and after the school day. Language courses for parents are also offered on campus, reinforcing the school\u2019s strong sense of community.
\nTogether, these opportunities enrich students\u2019 education, encourage personal growth and prepare them to thrive in a global world.<\/p>\n","accommodation_description":"","day_school_min_yearly_fee_in_usd":"5635","cost_description_day_students":"","boarding_school_min_yearly_fee_in_usd":"","cost_description_boarding_students":"","accreditations":"Certifications, Accreditations & Recognitions IB World School authorised to offer the full IB Continuum (PYP, MYP and DP), being the only school in the Aravaca\u2013Pozuelo\u2013Majadahonda area offering all IB programmes from Early Years to Baccalaureate.
