International Area

We are pleased to announce the appointment of Pedro Moreno as the Director of the International Area at Brains International Schools. This is a new area created for the entire Brains Group with the aim of strengthening our presence and participation in the global educational community. The mission of the International Area of Brains International Schools is to promote a globalized and high-quality education that prepares our students to compete and excel in an increasingly interconnected world. By promoting academic excellence, cultural diversity, and inclusion, facilitating access to international educational opportunities, and creating a conducive environment for the learning and personal growth of all our students, both local and foreign.

International Area

The International Area will be composed of a team of professionals dedicated to carrying out the following activities:

This will provide them with a culturally enriching experience on an international level, visiting projects synergistic with entrepreneurship, culture, and art, alongside students from Madrid and the Canary Islands in an exclusive environment.

British English Olympics

Our Secondary students can take part in the British English Olympics. The main purpose of this event is to promote public speaking and carry out presentations in an international environment. Participants will travel to London to take part in a series of workshops and competitions following a main subject, as well as presentations, debates, improvisations, etc. In addition, they will have the opportunity to meet students their age from all over the world, as the event has representatives from twenty different countries.

This two-week intensive programme is aimed at developing skills such as critical thinking, critical analysis, problem solving, leadership, public speaking, teamwork, negotiation, debating, and a persuasive and convincing use of the English language.

Last year was the first time we took part in the event, where we won the coveted ‘Mystery Challenge’ award.

The Masters

The programme consists of twelve days of Business lessons in London and is aimed at Baccalaureate 1 students. In these classes, students learn strategies to sell products, understand the importance of their design, set financial goals, launch a marketing plan, analyse competition, and launch a brand and its main objectives. Students will gain first hand experience in a company in London, where they will learn their modus operandi and business model. Participants will stay in Christ’s Hospital School or Royal Holloway School.
