Gregorio Marañón School (Toledo) has been developing a bilingual project in Early Childhood and Primary Education through an agreement between the Spanish Ministry of Education and the British Council since the 1996/7 academic year.Given the need to improve the quality of the teaching-learning process and internationalize it,since the 2016/17 academic year a team of around 50% of the teaching staff was formed,who participated in a previous Erasmus+KA 101 project,an experience that promoted both the professional development of the teachers involved and throughout the educational community,by carrying out dissemination activities inside and outside the center.It made it possible to create new ties with other teachers and schools from other European countries, share new ideas and practices that have an impact on our students, enriching their day-to-day lives, active methodologies that are still being developed at our center today and that we want to consolidate a global pedagogical line in innovation and active methodologies like Montessori or PBL,needs detected among the teaching staff that are reflected in our European Development Plan.This motivation is still valid in our center and prompted us to repeat the experience.
