Tailored especially for Spanish-speaking families, the curriculum helps children build confidence in their heritage language through fun, interactive activities. At the same time, we warmly welcome learners from all backgrounds, creating a multicultural environment where language learning happens naturally through play, creativity, and meaningful social connection.

LAH obtained the National Resource Centre for Supplementary Education (NRCSE) Quality Mark at the Advanced Level in 2023.
