Spanish language programmes for secondary schools in Granada, Spain

Spanish courses for secondary school groups at Escuela Montalban in Granada

During April several secondary school groups have participated in Spanish language programmes at Escuela Montalbán in Granada.

Drawn by the allure of the Alhambra, many visitors head to Granada unsure what to expect. What they find is a city where Islamic architecture and Arab-flavoured street life go hand in hand with monumental churches, tapas bars and graffiti art.

The city, sprawled at the foot of the Sierra Nevada, was the last stronghold of the Spanish Moors and their legacy lies all around: it's in the horseshoe arches, the spicy aromas emanating from street stalls, the teahouses of the Albaicín, the historic Arab quarter. Most spectacularly, of course, it's in the Alhambra, an astonishing palace complex whose Islamic decor and landscaped gardens are without peer in Europe.

There's also an energy to Granada's streets, packed as they are with bars, student dives, bohemian cafes and intimate flamenco clubs, and it's this as much as the more traditional sights that leaves a lasting impression.

So, many secondary schools from all around Europe and overseas choose Granada as a destination for their annual school trip.

The Spanish language programme takes usually place place during one week and consists of 4 Spanish classes lasting 45 minutes each, every day from Monday to Friday.

The whole group will be divided in classes with a maximum of 8 to 10 students per Spanish level.

Depending on the group's interests, we offer a tailor-made programme of cultural activities which includes visits to the old arabic quarter Albaicín, to the world-famous Alhambra, to the Sacromonte area, Flamenco shows, tapa tours, the Arabic bath or day-filling guided tours to Cordoba or Seville.

We will take care of everything during the group stay, including accommodation. We can offer full board accommodation with Spanish host families in double rooms, an option often suited for younger students.
