Wellbeing and Support

How students are nurtured, understood, and kept safe

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

The school aims to develop a cultural, ethical and moral framework based on a Christian vision of life, promoting freedom and personal responsibility. The training of students covers spiritual, academic, athletic and civic aspects, with attention to human virtues and values such as a job well done, service, joy, sincerity and coherence. Personal tutor support and school counseling accompany students to help them mature and pursue their best.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)

Differentiated education targets each student's needs, supported by an approach that seeks equal opportunities and personalized pathways. The school participates in European and regional associations related to differentiated education.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

From age 3, English, Valencian and Spanish are used in classrooms. In kindergarten, a 33% distribution for each language is maintained in the classroom. Primary includes a daily English lesson, with two levels (normal and advanced) available from 4th grade. English is also used for certain subjects (e.g., physical education in English since 2011/2012). German is offered as a foreign language in higher grades.

Mental Wellbeing

The school emphasizes a holistic education approach, integrating spiritual, personal and social development with academic learning, and maintains a supportive environment through individualized attention and family collaboration.

Safeguarding

The school integrates a Christian educational project with pastoral support and maintains structures for student welfare and guidance through tutors and family engagement.
