The A Levels are added to a curricular offer that includes, in addition to the national baccalaureate, the American High School Diploma, and Barcelona is the only school in Vallès that offers education in this system. A Levels guarantee an excellent education and offer students the opportunity to study and obtain a highly prestigious qualification, academically equivalent to the International Baccalaureate (IB). The International AS & Advanced Level Programme (International A Levels, the equivalent of the British Baccalaureate) is highly regarded by leading universities in the UK and other countries. The international prestige of A Levels is based on solid training. Students acquire knowledge while developing important skills for their future university and professional careers, such as analytical skills, research and teamwork. How is it structured? This is a two-year program in which each student chooses a maximum of three subjects of interest:
Mathematics or Geography
Spanish or Chemistry or Economics
Biology or Physics or Business
Each subject is assigned 5 teaching hours per week and 6 additional hours supervised by a specialized teacher. The program also incorporates a weekly tutoring session. Why choose A Levels?
They are the best gateway to the best British universities.
A Levels are the preferred qualification for access to some universities such as Oxford or Cambridge, in the case of wanting to study in the United Kingdom.
They have wide international recognition
Beyond the UK, A Levels allow easy access to universities all over the world and play an important role in the admissions process of many of the world’s top universities.
They offer specialized education
By focusing on fewer subjects, they allow students to specialize in specific subjects. This is very useful when it comes to accessing the chosen university: the background that comes with studying A Levels facilitates entry because it provides more specific knowledge than a generic baccalaureate. Academic: To have completed four years of secondary education and provide a transcript of records certifying a high grade point average. Languages: English level IELTS 6.5 or equivalent. In the case of new students, a letter of reference from the previous school recommending the student to take the British Baccalaureate.

Talks for parents This cycle aims to explain in a clear and accessible way how children and adolescents learn in the classroom. From the hand of Víctor González Griera, EISB’s innovation coordinator, parents will understand, from a pedagogical perspective, what group work, study techniques and project work consist of. In addition, the talks will deal with day-to-day issues, such as work at home after class or the criteria teachers apply to evaluate them or the strategies that can help them, both inside and outside the classroom. Group work Group work is one of the most sought-after skills in today’s world and in the world to come. It is one of the indispensable requirements in the working world of large companies, ahead of specific knowledge. This talk will address issues such as the difficulties that this type of work involves, how it is approached from the educational system and what evaluation systems are used both during the process and in relation to the final product. We will also talk about the learning opportunities that occur in the classroom and at home and how we can, from home and from school, help students to acquire this fundamental competence for their professional future. Thursday, November 15/19:30 h Study techniques There are occasions in which the result obtained after a certain time of study is not the expected one. In these cases, generally, people choose to increase the hours of study without getting better grades. The truth is that, on many occasions, it is not a matter of improving quantity, but of improving quality. This talk will address study techniques based on neuroscientific studies, ways of organizing time, subjects and space. It will also explain the mechanisms to try to adapt them to the way of being of each one, promoting a certain self-knowledge necessary for students to learn to manage themselves. Thursday, March 14/19:30 h Víctor González Griera Coordinator of the Educational Innovation Area of the European International School of Barcelona He obtained the extraordinary award from the University of Barcelona and was a finalist for the National Academic Excellence Award for his teaching studies concluded with honors and an average of 9.9.
