International School In Marbella
Trilingual, Innovative Education For 2-13 Year Olds
At EFIM Marbella we focus on developing children as a whole. Our holistic approach goes beyond the academic subjects, instilling a broad set of abilities in each child, to help them succeed in life after school.
Our international school, based in the heart of Marbella caters for children from 2 to 13 years. We are approved by the French Ministry of National Education and we use a number of innovative techniques, as well as teaching in French, English and Spanish to help our students become trilingual.

Teaching
The French education system is recognised for the excellence of its teaching. It combines strong academic standards across many subjects with the development of each child’s personality, critical and analytical thinking, effective study habits, and the ability to work confidently as part of a team.
We combine this with value-added teaching methods, such as Montessori, Freinet, Feuerstein and Gattegno – all with one main goal in mind: helping our students thrive.
Trilingual Education
We believe that speaking three languages is both a powerful learning advantage and an educational goal, which prepares children to succeed in Spain and anywhere else their future may take them.
At EFIM we teach 50% in French, 25% in English and 25% in Spanish. This is made up of structured language lessons, as well as curriculum taught in English and Spanish, alongside a French teacher.
Wellbeing
We aim to make school a place where children feel happy and motivated. This means using engaging, playful teaching methods and offering a welcoming, positive, and stimulating learning environment.
By integrating self-awareness, interpersonal skills, and social skills into our educational model, we aim to nurture each child’s full potential and prepare them to become fulfilled, responsible, and engaged citizens.
