International British Boarding School in Spain

Caxton College - British Day and Boarding School:
Caxton College is an independent British co-educational, day and boarding school in Spain for pupils between the ages of 1 to 18 years. It was founded in 1987 thanks to the initiative of a Valencian family. The school is accredited by both the English and Spanish education authorities. The school is purpose built and stands in 26,000 m2 in the village of Puçol just 20 km north of Valencia on the east coast of Spain. It is located halfway between the mountains and the sea, with a mild Mediterranean climate and extraordinary light. It is an open, multicultural school - a community without barriers where students from different continents come together creating an understanding and tolerant atmosphere.

Playgroup and Foundation stage, Primary (year 1 to year 6), Secondary (year 7 to year 11), The sixth form (year 12 and 13).

Until fairly recently the ability to speak other languages was a convenience but nowadays it is a necessity as it opens the doors to a whole world of opportunities.

Studies show that the learning of foreign languages diversifies and makes the thought processes more flexible thus strengthening the intelligence structure. It also facilitates the learning of a third language.

We believe that students in multilingual environments learn to be respectful to those of other cultures as whilst learning the language the student also learns about different life styles and different ways of thinking.

It is the ideal education for parents who for professional reasons frequently move to different countries as they the education programmes in bilingual schools are usually compatible around the world.
