All this in a privileged natural environment that promotes well-being, curiosity and active learning.

A British educational model of excellence
At O Castro, English is the language of instruction from the start of schooling, ensuring natural and progressive immersion. We follow the National Curriculum of England at all educational stages, an internationally recognised curriculum that encourages curiosity, creativity and the comprehensive development of the student, opening the doors to prestigious Spanish and international universities, both public and private.
As part of Globeducate, our students participate in projects and shared experiences with more than 65 schools in 11 countries, acquiring a truly global perspective.
Learning beyond the classroom: ‘The Journey’
From the age of three, students participate in ‘The Journey’, an exclusive outdoor learning programme integrated into the curriculum. Through this programme, students:
- Develop character, confidence and resilience
- Enhance social and emotional skills
- Learn to work as a team and connect with nature
‘The Journey’ also prepares students to continue with the prestigious Duke of Edinburgh's International Award programme at later stages.
Facilities that ignite learning
O Castro's facilities are designed to inspire, experiment and create. Spaces such as the recently opened Creativity Lab, along with the Black Box for public speaking and performing arts and the Green Zone for outdoor learning, are part of a project of constant innovation.
These environments allow students to learn by doing, develop their creativity and acquire the skills necessary to successfully face the academic, personal and professional challenges of the future.
