School History
Founded in 1867 by the Daughters of Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul, our school, with more than 150 years, is one of the oldest in the city. In 1997 it became part of the Vincentian School Foundation, and since the 2021-2022 academic year we have been a public center, changing the name from Escola Sagrada Família to Institut Escola Londres. A change of ownership that offers us opportunities that we did not have and encourages us to carry out new projects on a very solid basis.
In all these years, we have seen how the Hospital Clínic and the Industrial School were built, how the Plaza Francesc Macià and the Turó Parc were urbanised, how the Sarrià road became an avenue, and we have even seen Barça play in its first countryside. And it is with this desire to continue being an educational benchmark in the neighbourhood and in the city that IE London looks forward, with the desire to offer a quality, inclusive and truly educational project to our students.
Educational project
An international, innovative and quality educational project:
- We prepare our students so that they can achieve excellence in their human and intellectual development. We give them the necessary tools to understand the world in which they live and to be able to intervene actively and critically.
- We accompany our students in the development of their intellectual, physical, affective and social capacities with an inclusive, active, flexible and constructive methodology that adapts to the specific needs of each child, and that incorporates pedagogical innovations and advances most suitable technology.
- We work closely with our families for a comprehensive education that makes our students autonomous, competent, responsible and happy people.
- We are very aware of the sustainable development goals for the year 2030, and we work so that our students assume them with the aim of having a better world for all people and the environment.
