administrative team

The administrative team is a group of teachers who are responsible for the executive and directive function of the School. The Director proposes the members of the Teaching Staff, or Claustro, who if they accept, will make up the team over which he/she presides and coordinates. This team is responsible for the daily functioning of the School, has to make decisions of an immediate nature on a daily basis, but their work is also over a mid and long-term period, defining the educational plan of the Centre, and setting the objectives that the collective group as a whole - teachers and students - have to meet. The Administrative Team is, therefore, a decisive element in the smooth running and operation of the School. The members hold the following offices:
