Mirasur School strengthens its commitment to international, high-quality education. We are proud to announce that our school has officially been authorized to implement the Middle Years Programme (MYP) of the International Baccalaureate (IB), a significant milestone that reinforces our student-centered educational model.

The MYP is designed for students aged 11 to 16 and fosters critical thinking, interdisciplinary learning, intercultural understanding, and community engagement. Its methodology supports the development of autonomous, reflective students who are actively involved in their surroundings.

A Transformative Model

“The MYP authorization marks a decisive step in our journey as an IB World School,” said Pedro Sampedro, Director of Mirasur School. “It positions us at the forefront of education, strengthening our mission to develop self-confident students with critical thinking skills, ready to transform the world through knowledge and values.”

“It has been a rigorous and demanding process, but deeply enriching for both our teaching staff and students,” added Juana Corral, Academic Director of Secondary and Baccalaureate and MYP Coordinator at Mirasur. “The MYP is already embedded in our day-to-day teaching in Secondary Education and is transforming the way we teach and learn. It’s a unique opportunity to foster international-mindedness and meaningful learning.”

The Director also highlighted the vital role of the faculty throughout the process:
“This achievement has been made possible thanks to the commitment, preparation, and tireless efforts of our teachers. They have shown incredible dedication in adapting their educational practices to IB standards, once again proving they are the cornerstone of our educational project.”

Looking ahead, Mirasur School continues advancing its IB journey with a clear goal: to launch the Diploma Programme (DP) in the 2027/2028 academic year. This program, aimed at students aged 16 to 18, is recognized by top universities around the world for its academic rigor and excellence.

This new milestone adds to other recent accomplishments by Mirasur School, including being featured in Spain’s three leading educational rankings (Forbes, El Mundo, and El Español) as one of the best schools in the country. It is a further testament to our commitment to an innovative, inclusive, and high-quality education.
