There is a coordinator at the school who serves as a liaison between the student and the American organisation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">It basically consists of\u00a0<strong>taking, through a system of validations, a number<\/strong><strong><br \/>\nof subjects from the American system<\/strong>\u00a0distributed over two, three or four years of programme.<br \/>\nThis will depend on the Spanish academic year in which the student starts (2nd, 3rd, 4th grade of ESO).<br \/>\nIn this way the student validates up to 75% of the 24 credits required to obtain the High School Diploma. As a guideline, the additional extracurricular effort to their regulated studies in our country is estimated at around 5 hours per week.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">This programme is\u00a0<strong>aimed at students in the 3rd and 4th grades of ESO, and exceptionally in the 1st grade of Baccalaureate<\/strong>, with a good capacity for work, personal organisation and a good level of English, who wish to broaden their academic possibilities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Farewell to TOEFL<\/strong>. This qualification saves the exams to certify the language level.<br \/>\nAmerican universities consider the Dual Baccalaureate to be sufficient.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=&#8221;margen-xl&#8221;][vc_column icons_position=&#8221;left&#8221;][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=&#8221;17635&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;titulako&#8221;]<span class=\"primario\">TWO SIMULTANEOUS <\/span> <span class=\"secundario\">DEGREES<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=&#8221;margen-xl&#8221;][vc_column icons_position=&#8221;left&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;GOAL&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|text_align:center&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;titular-sec&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1676550243203{margin-bottom: 40px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #333333;\">The aim is to improve the<span class=\"apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';\">command of English and knowledge of different subject areas<\/span><\/strong>.<br \/>\nThe aim is to<span class=\"apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';\">provide an additional competitive advantage<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>to these learners by encouraging their development towards lifelong, 21st century education through the thoughtful use of interactive educational opportunities in a flexible, learner-centred e-learning environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;17633&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; onclick=&#8221;custom_link&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; link=&#8221;https:\/\/www.academica.school\/&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section]<\/p>\n<div class=\"clearfix\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_section full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1666256116458{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;margen-xl&#8221;][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1666348218400{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;cabecera-principal-interior&#8221;][vc_column&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-17630","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Dual Baccalaureate - High School in Vitoria-Gasteiz | URKIDE<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Dual Baccalaureate education in Vitoria-Gasteiz preparing students for university and future careers.
