History

[edit]

The establishment of the center began in 1980 and it was formally established by Decree No. 604 of February 25, 1982.[2] The center itself was created in the 1950s as a joint project of the governments of Spain and Colombia, but the formal establishment and management by degree originated in the 1980s.[citation needed]

It is in the north of Bogota at calle 127A and carrera 11B. It has[when?] 817 students, with 464 in preschool and primary school and 353 in secondary school, along with 53 teachers with a majority being Spanish.[citation needed]

The school is governed under the general direction of international cooperation of the Spanish education ministry as well as the Proyecto Educativo Institucional (P.E.I.). The L.O.E. will be implementing a new framework that will be adopted by the school.[citation needed]

The curriculum used is that of Spain for all levels, although social sciences of Colombia are also taught. Students graduate with both Spanish and Colombian baccalaureates.[citation needed]

The cultural center also has exhibitions, performances, concerts, cycles, and other activities.[citation needed]
