IES Juan Goytisolo Bilingual School is the only Secondary School in the coastal town of Carboneras, in the province of Almería, southeast Spain. Since the Bilingual Programme started in September 2020, the managing team of the school has been giving steps to favour its implementation. One of the most relevant aspects of an efficient bilingual programme is an appropiate adaptation of our School Educational Project. The institution is bilingual in several nonlinguistic subjects, such as Biology, Geography and History and Maths. Furthermore, the study of foreign languages has been boosted by the increase of Second Foreign Language (French) tuition time, and the arrival of native speakers conversation assistants. Another aspect that needs to be addressed is the spirit with which the managing team of the school modifies and updates the School Educational Project to include the results of the project and the way in which these results impinge on thedaily teaching-learning process.
