English Educational Centre (EEC)
This long established school blends experience, fine teachers and modern methods to produce a relaxed and effective English Curriculum based learning environment for children between 3 and 12 years of age - for both residents and visitors. Great emphasis is placed on giving children a happy environment, consistent with high work levels and an effective education.
Full Time English based Education
The English Educational Centre is an excellent privately owned school, operated by the head mistress, Mrs Ann Plummer. The school allows education-conscious parents of any nationality, to provide their child with a superb full time education, based on the internationally respected English National Curriculum. This curriculum is the perfect platform for Tenerife domiciled children of any nationality who wish to continue their education through to full UK University degree standard and further. Spanish is taught of course, and is the second language of the school. Future plans include increasing resources to provide extended education for pupils up to 18 years or more. The list below summarises the major benefits of the EEC facility.
Vacational Day-Care Education
Typical of Mrs Plummer's unique approach, is the availability of a 'daily based' facility for visitors to the island. This means that even tourists can place their children into a happy, learning-based environment on a daily basis during their stay.
Parents who are badly need a holiday outside term holidays, but are reluctant to take their children out of schooling, can ensure the children have educational input, in an interestingly different environment during the holiday. This is also an excellent opportunity for those moving to the island, to prepare children for schooling in Tenerife.
Fees can be billed on an hourly, weekly, monthly or single term basis, by prior arrangement.

Wingate School Tenerife
Wingate School is located in the small village of Cabo Blanco approximately 5 km's above the town of Los Cristianos. The school has grown over the years and now offer's a comprehensive and complete secondary education for children.
The school is small by U.K. standards and classroom capacity is kept to a minimum. This allows children attending the school, to receive quality education from the teaching staff. Children make many long term friendships within the school and often continue their contacts outside the school environment.
The school offers many activities including dance and computer clubs, summer school activities and has a very good drama department, which has produced some memorable plays. Whilst the school still believes in the older values of respect for oneself and others, discipline and attention to work, it also offers a caring and nurturing environment for children.
