The exams are sat in the building
This is the distinction, in the school's own words:
"offers pupils the chance to sit, in the school itself, the official University of Cambridge examinations, PET (B1) and FCE (B2)."
It also runs DELF for French. For a family arriving mid-year, an in-house exam centre removes a small, real friction: the child is not sent across the city on a Saturday to a language academy to certify what they already do all week.
Founded in 1853 and awarded the city's Gold Medal in 2010, it sits in Ciutat Vella, C/ Padre Huérfanos 3–7.
The American diploma, described accurately
The Bachillerato Norteamericano here is "organised by the Florida Department of Education and accredited by The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools." The school is straightforward about what it involves: it runs as an after-school commitment of three to four hours a week, normally starts in year 3 of ESO, requires six subjects online with native-speaker teachers, and ends in a US High School Diploma.
That is a second qualification earned in the evenings, not a second timetable. It suits a disciplined teenager and it does not suit every one.
Languages
The school publishes no percentages, only that it "increases the hours devoted to English with native teachers at every stage." French runs as the second foreign language from year 1 of ESO.
The register's declaration for ESO is 25% Valencian, 49% Spanish, 32% English — the joint highest English share of any concertado in this city, level with Jesús-María Fuensanta. As everywhere in that register, the figure is the school's own declaration rather than an audit, and the three numbers do not sum to 100. Ask on the visit which subjects make up the 32%.
Stages and size, from the register: 3 units and 75 places in Infantil, 6 and 150 in Primaria, 4 and 120 in ESO, and 4 units with 140 places in Bachillerato — a small school by Valencian concertado standards, which for some families is the whole appeal.
What it costs
Tuition, registration, the voluntary contribution and the association fee are all unpublished — the URLs for fees, prices, tariffs, financial information, services and the school office all return 404.
What is published, and it is more than most, are the books and materials — but from the 2024-25 year:
| Year group | Published cost |
|---|---|
| Infantil, 3 years | €195.00 |
| Infantil, 4 years | €195.00 |
| Infantil, 5 years | €260.00 |
| Primaria, year 1 | €383.00 pack, less €160.00 book voucher — €223.00 net |
| Primaria, year 2 | €355.00 less €160.00 — €220.00 net |
| Primaria, year 3 | €167.00 |
| Primaria, year 4 | €120.00 |
| Primaria, year 5 | €147.00 |
| Primaria, year 6 | €116.00 |
In ESO there is a "Digital Services Pack, sold exclusively at Gran Asociación" that includes an iPad, of which the school says families "will receive information about the price later" — no figure. Bachillerato: a PDF with no price.
Holiday schools (2024-25 sheet), open to children from outside the school, ages 3 to 12: half day €20.50 a day or €77.50 for four days; full day €30.50 a day or €117.50 for four days; morning care 08:00–09:00 free; 10% off for the first sibling. There are Easter, Summer, September and Christmas editions — worth knowing for a family landing in the middle of a school holiday with nowhere to put the children.
Who it suits
A family in or near the old town, wanting the strongest declared English in the concertado sector and certification handled inside the school, and willing to ring the office for the one number nobody publishes.
