A new Aula del Futuro was inaugurated on May 6 in Santander (Cantabria), followed by another opening in Melilla on May 20, marking a further milestone in the national rollout of this innovative educational initiative.

Both spaces as brand new adds to the growing network of Future Classroom Labs promoted by the National Institute of Education and Technologies, designed to foster active learning and digital competence in schools.

In collaboration with the regional education authority and other stakeholders, the Santander and Melilla labs will serve as a hub for teacher training and experimentation with cutting-edge methodologies. As a reflection of a continued commitment to modernising education and supporting educators in the integration of technology into their daily practice.

The Aula del Futuro project beyond Spain’s borders

The Aula del Futuro project has expanded beyond Spain’s borders, reaching Spanish international schools in places as Colombia, Andorra, and Argentina.

These innovative learning spaces promote active methodologies, digital competence, and collaborative work through flexible, technology-rich environments.

The implementation of the project reflects a strong commitment to delivering high-quality education abroad, equipping students with 21st-century skills while fostering creativity, inclusion, and global awareness.
