We believe that our parents and families are the first and most important educators in their children's lives come which is what motivates them to provide them with the very best opportunities in life. At Alegra, we have provided a strong support system in place for each and every family in their role as educators.
Encouraging parental engagement is more than common courtesy at Alegra. It is one of the best ways in which we are able to create a positive learning ecosystem for our students. We have a School community built on parent-teacher relationships and a fully integrated educational strategy in place to ensure that parents and teachers work together to improve learning. The gains in academic achievements and social outcomes are significant. We provide bespoke forms of support to our families through a dedicated team of Personal Mentors and Tutors, counselling, specialised workshops and open channels of communication; a powerful platform for enhancing and extending the work on parental engagement and raising achievement.
Parents Academy 24-25The foundation of the family and the upbringing of children lies in a strong and solid marriage. To help nurture this firm foundation on which children are raised, we decided to move the conversation and put marriage training, education and coaching as the centre of gravity of family relationship development.
With this in mind, we offer you the opportunity to grow in your marriage with sessions that will strengthen it.
What is Love 2 Grow?The Family Workshops are family orientation sessions with a single objective: to provide parents with guidelines that will help them improve their parenting skills with their children and, as a result, improve the family.
Family Workshops are divided into three groups according to the age of the children. Each group consists of three sessions given by professionals.
There are 3 sessions per academic year, starting in October and the price is 80€ per family.

Parents are the primary educators and protagonists in the education of their daughters. This idea is embodied at Alegra, firstly, in the fluid communication between parents and the school and, secondly, through the “Preceptora”.
At Alegra, each family is assigned a “preceptora” whose role is to accompany the student in her academic and personal development, always in agreement and collaboration with the parents.
The Preceptora’s role is to guide and train her students in consultation with their parents.
To this end, she meets regularly with the student and at least once a term with the parents. In this way, the school and the families draw up a personal improvement project for each pupil, adapted to the needs of the pupil and the family.
Since 2017, Alegra has organised this trip to the Holy Land for Alegra families. Sailing on Lake Genesaret, visiting Bethlehem, the Jordan River, the Holy Sepulchre... see with your own eyes where Jesus of Nazareth was.
“For us the trip to the Holy Land has been a once in a lifetime experience. On a spiritual level it has made us live our faith and understand the gospel in a much more experiential way, as if we were true disciples of Christ and following in his footsteps as many followed him 2000 years ago".
Every year, families from Alegra go on a pilgrimage to pray to Our Lady of Fatima a “romería”. It is a trip especially aimed at families whose daughters are celebrating their First Holy Communion, although of course, it is open to all interested families of the school.
