El Plantio International School
Located in La Canada, just a short walk from La Vallesa metro station outside of central Valencia, El Plantío International School offers a dynamic educational experience. The school presents both the British national curriculum and the International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum, with the IB being a mandatory component for all students. A distinctive feature of El Plantio is the specialization in speech and drama within the secondary school section, setting it apart from many international schools that typically focus on academics or the sciences.
Emphasizing speech and drama as integral parts of the curriculum, El Plantio ensures a well-rounded education, extending this focus to younger students as well. The primary language of instruction is English, supplemented by Spanish and Valencian as core subjects, and the option of French, German, or Chinese as foreign languages. Beyond the regular academic year, the school remains open during the summer for both enrolled students and non-students.
Admissions details can be obtained by directly contacting the school, where requirements for each student will be explained. El Plantío International School aligns with the National Curriculum for England and Wales, catering to students from age 2 to 18. In the sixth form, students have the opportunity to pursue the International Baccalaureate. The school offers versatile options including day school, weekly boarding, and full boarding during secondary school. Smart and well-equipped residence facilities are conveniently located across from the school buildings.
The school's strong emphasis on speech and drama extends to vocational training in these areas, as well as offering the IB with a drama option. Notably, El Plantio boasts a newly built 300-seat theatre with professional backstage facilities, providing students from primary levels upwards with a platform to explore and excel in drama.
El Plantío International School, in operation since 1982, has been offering a British education for students aged 2 to 18. The curriculum includes the National Curriculum for England during the Early Years, Primary, and Secondary stages, culminating in pre-university education through the International Baccalaureate.
As an examination center for prestigious institutions like the University of Cambridge, Trinity College London, and the International Baccalaureate organization, the school aims to foster a multicultural environment, where students acquire proficiency in multiple languages. Upon completing their studies, students can seamlessly transition to universities in Spain and abroad, showcasing the skills acquired through an international education system.
