2014-15 LANGUAGE ASSISTANTS

Unfortunately this year the help from Language Assistants is being reduced in schools with fewer than 10 bilingual groups like ours. We will only have 6 hours a week distributed in two days. We will share our Language Assistant with the elementary school  in Corrales (they will also have 6 hours a week).
This new school year there will be 742 Language Assistants placed in Andalucía (138 through the Ministry of Education and 604 through the Andalusian Education Department).
 Long are those days when only in Andalucía there were more than 1,300!! We expect them on October 1st until May 30th.

NEW OPTIONAL BILINGUAL SUBJECT

From next year we are offering a new bilingual subject to our ESO Year 4 students. It is called "English in a global world" and is one of the Proyectos Integrados available for that level. See below for more information:

LIBROS BILINGUES CON EL PAIS
