Fees
Overview
- The Colegio Internacional El Valle de Alicante does not publish a public, itemized fee schedule (application fee, per-year tuition by term, billing calendar, payment methods or standard refund policy) for the current academic year. Families must contact the school secretariat for an official, itemized fee schedule and billing terms.

Application / Registration Fees
- No specific, publicly posted application or registration fee is available. There is no published, itemized amount for an application/matriculation fee for any year group. Families should obtain the exact application fee directly from the school's admissions or secretariat office.

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)
- The school does not publish a breakdown of tuition by year group or per term. No public schedule is available showing term-by-term or annual tuition for Infantil, Primaria, ESO or Bachillerato.
- Estimated market range from local school listings indicates typical monthly private-school fees for similar private schools in the area fall roughly in the range of EUR 300–700 per month; this is an external listing estimate and not an official school publication. Use the school secretariat for precise, binding tuition figures by year group and term.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- No publicly posted billing schedule or standard payment terms (for example: number of installments, due dates per term, or penalties for late payment) are available. Billing schedule and payment terms are set by the school and must be confirmed with the secretariat at the time of admission or re-enrolment.

Boarding / Residence (if applicable)
- The centre's publicly available information and service descriptions list day-school services (for example: comedor/cafeteria, transporte escolar, horario ampliado) and do not list boarding or resident accommodation as a provided service. No boarding fees are published because the school operates as a day school rather than a residential/boarding institution.

Other costs and obligatory extra charges
- Uniforms and official school clothing are provided through the school's authorised uniform management (local campus-based shop and textile management contact). Families are required to purchase official uniform items from the school's authorised channels; specific garment prices are set by the supplier and by campus. No uniform price list is publicly posted on the school's general information pages.
- Additional costs that commonly apply (but are not publicly itemised by the school) may include: school lunch (comedor), transport (bus), extracurricular activities, specific subject materials or IB examination/e-assessment fees. One published school scholarship document confirms that scholarship funds can be applied to cover matriculation and PAI/IB external examination fees for eligible students, showing the school handles specific exam-related charges through separate arrangements. Exact amounts for lunch, transport, extra-curriculars and exam fees must be confirmed with the secretariat.

Refund information
- No standard, publicly posted refund policy (for tuition, registration deposits, uniform purchases or other fees) is available. Refund rules, if any, are determined by the school and must be obtained directly from the secretariat or in the written enrolment contract.

Accepted fee payment methods
- There is no publicly posted list of accepted payment methods (for example: bank transfer, direct debit, credit card) for regular tuition payments. Payment methods and instructions are handled by the school's administrative office and will be given to families at registration or invoicing.

Administrative contacts for official fee documentation
- Secretariat contact for definitive, itemised fee information and for official payment instructions: telephone 965 155 619 and email secre.ali@colegioelvalle.com. Secretariat hours for parent queries are published on the school contact page.

Brief note on searches performed
- Public pages and the school's information portal include admissions contact details, uniform-supply contacts and occasional scholarship notices, but no public, itemised fee schedule (application fee, tuition per year/term, billing calendar, payment methods, boarding fees or a refund policy) was found in the school's published materials. External school-listing sites give an estimated monthly private-school price range (EUR 300–700) but do not provide the school's official term-by-term or year-by-year fees. Families should request the official, itemised fee schedule and written billing terms directly from the school's secretariat.
Academics

International School El Valle teaches IB (PYP), IB (MYP), IB (DP) for students aged 3 to 18.

Curriculum

International Baccalaureate (IB) is more than an academic proposition: it is a global, demanding, and deeply human educational experience for students aged 3 to 19. The IB model is organized around three programmes (PYP, MYP, and DP), all sharing the philosophy of forming engaged, informed, reflective, and internationally minded individuals. It is implemented in more than 5,700 schools worldwide and in 159 countries, and is internationally recognized for its academic rigor, its active-learning approach, and its ability to develop in students not only knowledge but also skills and key attitudes for life. Its holistic approach fosters curiosity, autonomy, critical thinking, empathy, and global awareness—qualities essential to thrive in an increasingly interconnected world. El Valle Alicante offers the complete IB Continuum, authorized to deliver all three IB programmes (PYP, MYP, DP), guaranteeing the implementation of the IB Continuum and enabling natural, coherent progression from early years to university access. Curricular adaptation to Spanish legislation provides official recognition that allows students to access Spanish universities and obtain the Spanish Bachillerato diploma alongside the IB Diploma. The program emphasizes strong competencies in languages, critical thinking, autonomy, and emotional management, and promotes a student profile rooted in the IB values of respect, commitment, excellence, critical thinking, and personal growth.

Higher Education Progression

Universities recognize the IB as a demanding qualification that forms bright, organized students with independent thinking and a global vision. The complete IB Continuum guarantees coherent progression from the earliest years to university access, and El Valle Alicante is authorized to teach all three IB programmes (PYP, MYP, DP). Curricular adaptation to Spanish legislation enables access to national universities and allows the Spanish Bachillerato diploma to be earned alongside the IB Diploma. The IB develops transferable skills in languages, critical thinking, autonomy, and emotional management, highly valued by universities and employers.

Wellbeing

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

The Valle Alicante accompanies each student in their holistic development—academic, emotional and social—through quality, personalized education with an international vision. It fosters critical thinking, empathy, respect, and commitment to the world in a multilingual, innovative and safe learning environment where every student can develop their potential. The IB approach emphasizes ten profile attributes: Inquirers, Knowledgeable, Thinkers, Communicators, Principled, Open-minded, Caring, Risk-takers, Balanced, and Reflective. The program emphasizes curiosity, autonomy and emotional management as part of living the IB profile. The school places emphasis on well-being and social-emotional development as essential to learning.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)

The school is bilingual with native English-speaking teaching assistants. In the Infant School, English immersion supports language development.

Mental Wellbeing

The mission states the school accompanies each student in their holistic development—academic, emotional and social—in a multilingual, innovative and safe environment. The IB profile highlights that students care for their physical, emotional and intellectual well-being. The program emphasizes emotional development and autonomy as part of the educational experience, reinforcing a culture of learning that values well-being as integral to success.

Safeguarding

Bienestar del menor provides documentation related to the care, health and protection of minors, with protocols, authorizations and preventive measures that guarantee a safe, respectful environment tailored to each student.
