Cooperation of schools from different countries will help us to upgrade the methods that have been used in our school and to learn other methods that have been used successfully by our partners. The students in Manuel de Falla are very interested in a wide range of subjects, such as Science, Maths, History, foreign languages or ICT.

Since 1990 different teachers have been participating in european education programs. Therefore, we have a large experience both as a partner and coordinator in different projects. Our teachers are specially concerned in the current challenges that has to be faced in the following years, related to the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals. In fact, some of our teachers are currently involved in programs such as Aldea, STEAM or TDE.
