School

Our partner school is situated at the heart of Barcelona, in the central and animated Eixample district, close to the Sagrada Familia cathedral and numerous shopping streets. The school is spread out over three floors in a modern building and consists of 50 spacious and bright classrooms and a conference room. Numerous common areas are available to students. A large interior patio, equipped with several computers with Internet connection, opens out on to the school's magnificent garden where it will be pleasant to make the most of the sunshine, to eat a small snack (numerous vending machines are available throughout the school) and to establish contacts with the other students during breaks! There is a WiFi connection available throughout the building. Thanks to its ideal location, 10 minutes away from the Plaza de España, and its modern teaching equipment, this school is really unique!
