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.
