Located on the seashore and adjacent to the Punta Entinas Natural Park, in Almer铆a, SEK International School Albor谩n is regarded as a high quality international school in Andalusia. It is the only school in Almeria that offers three IB International Baccalaureate Programmes, from 3 to 18 years of age (Primary Years Programme Middle Years Programme - MYP and the Diploma Programme, either bilingually in English and Spanish or fully in English). These programmes are coordinated closely with the Spanish education system. We are also accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC).
For the SEK Education Group, to which SEK-Albor谩n belongs, physical fitness and respecting one's health are an essential element of the learning process. SEK-Albor谩n has extensive recreational areas, and 28,000m2 of outdoor spaces, as well as extensive sports facilities and a heated indoor pool. Its classrooms are equipped with cutting-edge technology (makerspace, video recording and editing spaces, radio, 3D printer, robotic tables). It is considered a model of educational innovation in Andalusia.
SEK-Albor谩n employs their own exclusive Future Learning Model, a learning method whose key objective is to develop intelligence and instil values in each of its students. The school has incorporated various units where students on the IB continuum will work with different AI tools in their teaching-learning process.
Social and emotional learning programmes are of particular importance in students' curricula to foster the social and personal awareness. In the Intelligent Classroom, each student progresses according to their potential, working in teams and having individual efforts rewarded. Teachers and tutors are afforded an open space for dialogue with students and parents both in-person and online. Students can take advantage of the Flipped Classroom to work on content and tackle issues from a broad perspective, solving doubts with their teachers, and learning by doing.
SEK-Albor谩n offers a bilingual Spanish-English education that is incorporated progressively over all educational stages (50% of the subjects are taught in English). It is the only school in Almeria authorized by Cambridge English Exams, Alliance Fran莽aise and Goethe Institut in Almer铆a. It also has an extensive program of exchanges and participations in United Nations Models.
In all SEK International Schools we are able to offer a quality online learning model in which students are able to continue their learning if necessary, with synchronous and asynchronous classes, and with personalized monitoring by teachers and tutors, which has proved successful with students and families.
