At Colegio Internacional San Cristóbal, your child can start at Nursery School at the age of 1 and finish the Baccalaureate at 18 without changing educational project. From the age of 3, every stage follows the programmes of the International Baccalaureate (IB).
Ages 1 to 18
From Nursery School to Baccalaureate
3 IB programmes
PYP, MYP and Diploma Programme
3 pathways after Secondary
IB Diploma, Spanish Baccalaureate or Vocational Training
Each stage is presented with its age range, the programme it follows and the building where it is taught. Each card links to full information about the stage.
Early Childhood Education, first cycle
Classrooms for 1- and 2-year-olds in a dedicated building at Calle Moncófar, 6, designed specifically for this age group. First routines, first contact with English and educational play.
Primary Years Programme (PYP)
The three years of second-cycle Early Years and the six years of Primary, at the main school. Learning is inquiry-based: pupils investigate real questions and connect subjects with one another.
Middle Years Programme (MYP)
The four years of Compulsory Secondary Education (ESO), with the official Valencian curriculum integrated into the IB framework. On completing the final year, students obtain the Spanish Secondary Education Certificate (Graduado en ESO).
It is the most important decision of a student’s school years. The Counselling Department supports each student and their family in choosing the best educational pathway according to their interests, needs and abilities.
Diploma Programme (DP)
Six subject groups, at least three at Higher Level, plus Theory of Knowledge, the Extended Essay and CAS (Creativity, Activity, Service).
Spanish education system
Two tracks: Science and Technology, and Humanities and Social Sciences. The direct route to the Spanish university entrance exam (PAU) and a degree in Spain.
FP San Cristóbal
Official vocational training programmes authorised by the Valencian Regional Government. Intermediate level requires the Secondary Education Certificate; higher level requires the Baccalaureate or the corresponding entrance exam. Two study modes: on-site and hybrid.
Intermediate level: Administrative Management, Care Worker for Dependent People and Nursing Assistant.
Higher level: Administration and Finance, Early Childhood Education and Dietetics.
As an IB World School authorised for all three programmes, we offer a coherent educational approach from Early Years to Baccalaureate: the same principles, assessment with clear criteria and a team that knows every student. This continuity benefits both those who start with us at the age of 3 and those who join in any other year, because our project is designed to welcome, support and help every student grow from wherever they are.
IB World School authorised for the Primary Years, Middle Years and Diploma Programmes.
Each stage builds on the previous one: habits, routines and ways of learning evolve gradually, without disruption.
From the PYP to the Diploma, students develop the attributes of the IB learner profile: inquiring, thinking critically, communicating and reflecting.
Tutors and the Counselling Department follow each student’s progress year by year and through every change of stage.
Considering a change of school for your child? We know it is an important decision for the whole family. In Early Years, Primary and Secondary, students can join in any year, with a welcome process coordinated by their tutor and the Counselling Department so that they settle in confidently and at their own pace. In a personal visit, we will explain how it would work in your child’s case.
Programmes and subjects change. These pillars remain in every year.
Spanish, Valencian and English from the start, French in class, German as an extracurricular activity from Primary and preparation for Cambridge exams.
