Next academic year to start with five new all-through schools in the public network
The 2024-2025 academic year gets under way on 9 September with five new all-through schools, resulting from the enlargement of four schools in the Zona Nord area of Nou Barris (Escola Elisenda de Montcada, Escola Mestre Morera, Escola Ciutat Comtal and Escola Ferrer i Guàrdia), and another in Sant Anadreu, the Institut Escola Vapor i Molí, resulting from the merger between the Escola Molí de Finestrelles and the Institut Vapor del Fil.Today is the start of the pre-enrolment period for the 2024-2025 school year:
- For infant and primary education, applications can be presented from 6 to 20 March. Once a place is assigned, enrolment can be completed between 18 and 26 June.
- For compulsory secondary education, applications can be made between 8 and 20 March. Enrolment will be between 18 and 26 June.
More children to be schooled from I3
The initial availability of places for the 2024-2025 school year in I3 (infants from the age of 3) is 11,720. Of these, 5,698 are places in publicly operated schools and 6,022 are in state-subsidised private schools. The prevision is for 10,805 infants in this school year (compared to 10,561 last year).
There will be fewer infants in district such as Gràcia and Sant Andreu, where unlike last year, no additional groups are being opened. In contrast, a new group is planned at the Escola Pràctiques in the district of Sants.
Initial availability of places at secondary schools
A total of 14,445 places will be available in secondary schools: 5,715 in publicly operated schools, and 8,730 in state-subsidised private schools. Two schools in the latter category have closed, the Escola Sant Francesc Xavier and the Escola Sagrado Corazón, in C/ Ribes. Pupils have been assigned places in a special pre-enrolment process, except for those starting secondary school, who will have to take part in the ordinary process.
