Laude Colegio Palacio de Granda

The school is committed to providing a multilingual, high-quality education that fosters ethical, social, moral, and intellectual development. Its methodology is active, innovative, and project-based, focusing on discovery and student autonomy. The school emphasizes a global mindset, environmental stewardship, and the development of 21st-century skills, aiming to inspire a passion for learning in every student.

The school offers a comprehensive educational pathway from Infant school (ages 1-3) through Primary, Secondary, and Baccalaureate levels. The curriculum is bilingual, with English and Spanish phonetics as the foundation, and introduces a third language (French or German) starting in 3rd Grade of Primary. The school integrates digital tools, such as Google Classroom, across all subjects in Primary and Secondary, and provides an enriched curriculum that includes international opportunities.

The school consistently achieves strong academic results, with 100% of its students passing the university entrance examination (EBAU) in recent years. Many students achieve high marks, with a significant percentage scoring above 13 out of 14. Graduates are supported through academic orientation and university fairs to prepare for higher education.

The school provides personalized learning and academic support to help students reach their potential, including a program specifically adapted for high-ability students. A dedicated department, including psychologists and speech therapists, evaluates students with special educational needs to determine if they can access the curriculum. While the school supports students with moderate learning needs, it does not have a specific department for severe learning difficulties.

The school maintains an open-door policy for admissions throughout the year. The structured process includes an initial inquiry, a school visit or virtual call, and a diagnostic evaluation that may involve reviewing previous academic reports, internal assessments by the school's psychology and speech therapy team, and a trial day. Final admission decisions are made by the Director, with the school prioritizing a strong fit between the student's needs and the school's educational environment.

The school operates on an annual academic calendar, with specific event schedules provided for each academic year, such as the 2025-2026 cycle. Families can access detailed event information through the school's official calendar portal.

The campus features modern, purpose-built facilities including a theater, a residence building, and an infirmary. Sports amenities consist of a football pitch, an outdoor swimming pool, a children's pool, and a sports hall. Academic and creative spaces include science laboratories (biology and chemistry), an art room, an audiovisual room, and specialized classrooms for infants, as well as dedicated buildings for primary, secondary, and baccalaureate students.

The school offers a variety of extracurricular activities designed to enrich the student experience. These include opportunities for international engagement, such as student leadership conferences, and thematic projects that encourage teamwork and collaboration across different age groups. Additionally, the school hosts a summer camp program in Asturias.
