More than a school, a life project
The only school in Spain that combines Montessori with the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP), offering bilingual teaching and a personalised learning plan
At Greenleaves, we believe every child is unique.
That’s why we’ve created an educational model that combines the best of two worlds: the Montessori philosophy and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme (PYP).
It’s a unique combination in Spain that nurtures autonomy, curiosity and confidence from the very beginning.
Personal attention and small groups
Each student follows a learning plan designed just for them, respecting their pace, talents and emotional needs. Teachers and school leaders personally know every child, which allows us to support them closely and guarantee a safe, caring and bullying-free environment.
International and active methodologies
We are the first and only school in Spain and the eighth in the world to combine Montessori with the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP). This means international learning begins from the earliest stages, nurturing autonomy, critical thinking and motivation from day one.

Bilingual education and languages
English and Spanish are taught organically from Early Years, with German introduced from Secondary. Language learning happens naturally, not as isolated subjects, preparing students to thrive in multicultural environments anywhere in the world.
Whole-child development
Our commitment goes beyond academics. We include wellbeing and mindfulness programmes, personalised tutoring and activities that promote cooperation, confidence and resilience. This way, we help children grow into happy learners today and balanced, capable adults tomorrow.

At Greenleaves, children don’t just learn, they grow happy, confident and ready to face the future with purpose.
We know that as a parent, you want real proof that this works. That’s why we share what many families at Greenleaves have already experienced.

“I took my son to a traditional school, and it was traumatic. Then we tried another one, but it turned out to be a façade. In the middle of the year, desperate, I looked for another option… and found Greenleaves. Here I found truth. My son was a little seed… and now he’s bloomed.”

“In traditional education, they tell you that by age four, every child must read and that creates frustration. Here, if your child is ready, they move forward; if not, they’re given time. And that changes everything”
