MODALITIES OF ENROLLMENT AT MODERATO SCHOOL
Registrations take place in five steps:
1/ You pick up the enrollment file during Open House events (or you can request it in digital format if you have already visited the school).
2/ If you are interested, you return the PRE-enrollment file (without the attached documents) as soon as you receive it. The selection criteria relate to a balanced gender distribution and the homogeneity of age ranges within the same class (e.g., in the 3-6 year-old Children's House class, the group of 3-year-olds will not exceed 7–8 children).
3/ If your file is accepted, YOU RECEIVE A NOTIFICATION OF ACCEPTANCE OF YOUR REGISTRATION. You then have one week to return the definitive form (without the attached documents) plus pay the registration fee of €600. After this deadline your place is no longer guaranteed.
4/ Then you have one month to return the attached documents.
5/ Last step: you must pay a security deposit of €683 / €740, corresponding to one month of tuition depending on your child's level of schooling. (This deposit is a guarantee in case of non-payment; it is returned at the end of the child's schooling when the withdrawal notice is given within the 3 months preceding the end of schooling). (Payment is made at the beginning of July)
At the end of the process, the enrollment is definitive and you will receive a letter with the dates of our various appointments before the start of the school year.

Moderato International Barcelona is a Montessori-based French international school in Barcelona for children from 15 months to 9 years. The campus occupies a 500 m2 space in the Putxet neighborhood, Carrer de Lucà 8, with three classrooms and a tree-lined courtyard. The curriculum blends Montessori pedagogy with elements of the French education system, organized into three cycles: Communauté enfantine (15 months–3 years), Maternelle (3–6 years), and Primaire (6–9 years). Instruction is primarily in French, with Spanish and English woven into daily learning, and Catalan introduced during the year. In September 2024, Moderato Barcelona opened a new primary class for 6–9-year-olds. The school emphasizes autonomy, individualized follow-up, and small-group work, supported by Montessori materials across preschool areas and primary learning. Extracurriculars include autonomous Montessori workshops, science and geography activities, English-language music and yoga, and language classes, all within a multilingual, family-centered setting. It participates in Erasmus+ projects, starting with Crowd School.
