Escola Pàlcam - Trilingual

Trilingual school:
Catalan, Spanish and English.

At Pàlcam, language learning is a fundamental pillar of our educational project. We are committed to trilingual education from the early stages, teaching subjects in Catalan, Spanish, and English at all educational levels.

Additionally, we offer French as an optional fourth language starting in secondary education (ESO), further enhancing students’ linguistic skills.

The benefits of multilingual
education are clear:

It fosters cultural openness, increases job opportunities, and enhances communication and adaptability skills.
Multilingual students develop advanced cognitive abilities, such as improved memory, better distraction management, and greater ease in learning new languages.

Progressive learning and
continuous reinforcement

Early childhood and primary education

Students begin learning English in preschool (I3) with 10 hours per week dedicated to activities in English.

During primary school, they continue with 10-11 weekly hours and CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) subjects such as Science and Drawing and Painting, preparing for official Cambridge exams (Starters, Movers, and Flyers).

Secondary Education and Baccalaureate

In secondary school (ESO), students have 9 hours of English per week and can choose French as a second foreign language.

We ensure that they are prepared to obtain the First Certificate and the French DELF diploma by the end of Baccalaureate.

International experiences
and language immmersion

Our trilingual program goes beyond the classroom. Students benefit from the support of native language assistants, participate in international exchanges and Erasmus+ projects, and take part in language immersion stays with host families in European countries.

Each year, we celebrate English Week, a week dedicated to cultural activities in English, deepening students’ understanding of English-speaking cultures. With this trilingual education, Pàlcam students become global citizens, ready to face the challenges of an interconnected world with confidence.

Erasmus+:
opening doors to the world

At Pàlcam, we offer students the opportunity to experience international exchanges through Erasmus+, connecting learning with the real world.

Our exchanges promote trilingualism, coexistence, and teamwork, while also addressing global challenges such as sustainability and inclusion. More than 400 students have already taken part in this experience, preparing them for a borderless future.
