MISSION
To transform society through family
Attendis Schools, in partnership with parents, teachers and students, provides a quality education that is focused on academics, service and personal development. Based on deep Christian values we seek to boost the potential of each child, from preschool through high school, in order to influence a rapidly changing world. Because we deeply believe that families are key decision makers; and education a powerful force for the transformation of entire societies. Most important: We do not only believe in our mission, we live it!
VISION
Our values
Our Human Training plan integrates the attributes of the International Baccalaureate Learning Community, which are aimed at training people with an international mind.
Attendis adds two attributes of its Educational Project:
With transcendent meaning
We look beyond immediate and material circumstances.
Common good
We manage our conduct with an ethical sense, which seeks the common good of people and society. We avoid judging other people, striving to do good and promoting harmony, justice and peace.

Frequent questions
The school secretary will give you an appointment to meet with our school’s Steering Committee where parents will receive complete information regarding the school and its educational programme. Your son or daughter will be given a brief level test—whenever possible, at the same time as your meeting with the Steering Committee. Within a week, at the most, the school will contact you to inform you about the status of the admission process.
The school has its own dining hall on the school premises. Our menus are drawn up by specialised nutritionists and meals are cooked daily in the school kitchens, strictly following all food safety regulations and quality protocols.
Several bus routes cover most of the towns and residential areas surrounding the school. All school transportation vehicles are equipped with appropriate seats adapted for all ages. Bus route monitors, normally teachers at the school, guarantee that an educational atmosphere is maintained throughout the journey to and from school.
Attendis offers bilingual education in English and Spanish from the very first day of class. Preschool and primary school students receive half of their lessons in English, while in secondary school, one-third of all classes are taught in English (at least three subjects).
Attendis schools have native teaching assistants who provide students with conversational support during class, allowing students to practise the language in groups and improve their level of oral communication.
In addition, our curriculum includes the learning of a third language (French, German or Portuguese) from the first year of Primary Education.
Technology is an ever present tool in our day-to-day educational programme, aimed at maximising the learning opportunities that digital technologies provide while helping our students adopt responsible habits when using electronic devices and applications. Likewise, students can develop their skills at creating new content through the use of digital media.
In the 2018/2019 school year, Attendis will launch a new G Suite-based platform for collaborative work. This is a pioneering project in Spain that will open up new learning and communication opportunities amongst families, teachers and students.
