New campus of Coruña British International School: Opening in September 2026
Coruña British International School will have a new campus in Sésamo (Culleredo) which will be fully operational in September 2026. Built on a 38,698 m² plot in an unbeatable natural environment, the new school will have a total built area of 14,800 m² of warm, open and interconnected educational spaces that facilitate active learning and contribute to the development of skills for the 21st century. The new campus of Coruña British International School will have a single building, with a clear differentiation of educational stages, in which students coexist but do not mix, as each stage has its own specific spaces. It is a very functional building, with the flexibility to adapt to the constant evolution of the students, and their educational needs in the different stages, from three to 18 years old. The centre will also have a gymnasium, indoor sports pavilion, auditorium, outdoor sports area, and arts and STEAM classrooms.
More than 14,800 m² built
The new campus of Coruña British International School will have a single building, to promote the coexistence of the entire student body, but which will also have spaces differentiated by educational stages, adapted to the specific needs of each one of them. A modern, functional and flexible building to adapt to the constant evolution of the students and their needs in the different educational stages, with light as the protagonist and transparency as an element of communication, as they are all structured around a central courtyard, which serves as a meeting point and catalyst for the school life of the new campus of Coruña British International School.
Educational spaces
The Early Years classrooms will have a specific outdoor area and their own playground, where pupils will be able to explore and experiment, giving free rein to their creativity and inventiveness. They will be located on the ground floor of the building next to the reception area, the Primary classrooms and learning spaces, the auditorium and the school canteen, which will continue to have its own menu prepared by a professional chef and supervised by a nutritionist. The layout of the primary classrooms is particularly noteworthy as they are integrated around an open, shared space where there are no corridors, so that all corners of the school will be filled with pupils learning in a practical and effective way.
The specific Secondary and Baccalaureate classrooms will respond to the educational needs of our young students. Structured around a STEAM area, with laboratories, workshops, music and art classrooms, they will enable our students to acquire the tools and critical thinking skills necessary to learn to make connections, organise ideas, be creative, make decisions and work together across disciplines, preparing them to meet the challenges of the 21st century.
The new campus will also have a gymnasium and a 1,412 m² single-storey sports centre, which will be connected to the educational building by a covered walkway to protect students from adverse weather conditions, as well as an outdoor area for sports practice.
