Colegio CEU Jesús María Alicante

The school is part of the Fundación Universitaria San Pablo CEU and is guided by the principles of Christian humanism and the social doctrine of the Catholic Church. Its educational model seeks the integral formation of the person, fostering academic excellence, critical judgment, and active participation in public life. The institution aims to develop students who are solidary, well-informed, and committed to the dignity of the human being and the common good.

The school offers a complete educational pathway starting from Educación Infantil through to Bachillerato, including an Aula Específica for Special Education. It is an authorized IB school, offering the Primary Years Programme (PEP) and the two-year International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme for students aged 16-19. The IB curriculum includes six subject groups—covering languages, individuals and societies, sciences, mathematics, and arts—alongside the core components of Theory of Knowledge (TOK), the Extended Essay, and Creativity, Activity, and Service (CAS). Additionally, the school implements the HORIZON program to promote STEAM education.

Students in the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme gain direct access to university without needing to take the Spanish EVAU examination, as their IB grades are validated for university admission. The school emphasizes academic excellence, critical thinking, and the development of skills such as public speaking, teamwork, and the use of new technologies. Graduates are prepared to be highly qualified professionals committed to the common good and social transformation.

The school provides a psycho-pedagogical cabinet staffed by specialists in psychology and pedagogy who offer individualized evaluations and intervention proposals. Support measures include curricular adaptations, reinforcement programs, and specialized guidance for students, teachers, and families. Additionally, the school includes a specific classroom for Special Education and programs such as 'CES Talento' to support students with high intellectual capacities.

The school provides a formal admission process for its various educational levels, including specific procedures for state-subsidized (concertado) stages. Prospective families are required to follow established steps, which include submitting documentation and adhering to specific criteria for enrollment. Detailed information regarding vacancies, calendars, and enrollment procedures is available through the school's administrative office and online portal.

The school operates on an annual academic calendar spanning from September to June. Key moments in the school year include the start and end of classes, as well as celebrations for Christmas, San Pablo, Holy Week, and Easter. Specific academic calendars for Infantil, Primaria, ESO, and Bachillerato are published annually for each school year.

The campus features a variety of specialized facilities, including a library with over 2,600 printed works and digital resources, and a modern kitchen and dining hall certified with ISO 22000.
