Teaching Areas

While passing up through these age groups, the children are taught within the British National Curriculum and the appropriate Spanish for their abilities. The Library is also used as an overflow area for support groups in school time.
Calpe School follows the British National Curriculum guidelines so children will be placed in the correct year for their age group. (1st September to the following 31st August). The same dates apply for the Spanish curriculum.

The school is constantly updating the library with new books and children can order books from the Red House International Book Club.
