Institut Sant Quirze

Institut Sant Quirze is a public school in Lloret de Mar that offers compulsory secondary education (ESO) (ages 12-16) and Bachillerato (upper secondary, ages 16-18). Teaching is conducted in Spanish, Catalan, and English, and the school provides cafeteria services, school transportation, and extracurricular activities.

Throughout the school year, the institute organizes outings and stays that complement the academic activities: 3rd ESO camps at PortAventura, an end-of-year trip for 4th ESO students, and an adventure day at Bosc Vertical in Mataró for 2nd ESO. The school also participates in the Inter-school Olympics of Lloret de Mar, along with other institutes in the municipality, and in the Travessa al Mar, the final event of the Estudiant de Ferro initiative. Among the classroom proposals is the elective Sociocultural Animation in 3rd ESO, with activities focused on environmental care, and oral storytelling projects in 2nd ESO, such as kamishibai. The institute also features the Punt Lila, a reference space during recess that offers information, listening, and support in cases of gender-based violence or sexist attitudes, aiming to promote respectful relationships and coexistence based on respect.
