About Campus El Sabio

Welcome to Campus El Sabio!

A full-service international study and sports centre providing a high standard of

accommodation, dining services, sports and leisure facilities as well as a conference

and meeting venue.

We are specially committed to schools, colleges and groups on study trips abroad,

carrying out both short and long-term education and sports programs.

Attached to our international academic purpose, we are also proud of presenting

our Sage College, The British School of Jerez, which covers from the earliest

year’s stages to higher education, providing schooling to national and international

students.

The center is located on a privileged area, 3 km from the city of Jerez de la Frontera,

in the South of Spain (please see page 3 for more details of the city and area). At

the time of founding our Campus, we deliberately chose a location that gathered the

requirements of being a pleasant, high level residential and well-connected place,

right next to a 27-holes golf course. This unique environment makes Campus El

Sabio the perfect destination for students.2

Jerez and the Surrounding Area

The city of Jerez is located in the province of Cádiz, in the autonomous region of Andalucía in the South of Spain. The area has always been a cultural melting pot, with a rich historical and cultural heritage. The city enjoys a favourable climate. Here are some facts:

• The city as well as the surrounding area is rich in History with Neolithic, Phoenician, Roman, Vandal, Visigoth and Arab settlements

• The city is the transport and communications hub of the province with an airport, train and bus stations

• The economy of Jerez is centred on the wine industry, with exports of sherry worldwide, the cultivation of fruits, grains, and vegetables and horse and cattle husbandry is also important to the local economy, in addition to tourism

What Is Our Objective?

The long term objective of Campus El Sabio is to develop a truly international study centre on our premises, which will offer unique learning experiences for local as well as international students. Campus El Sabio’s newly built study centre aims at providing comfortable and affordable accommodation, lecture, conference and sports facilities, food, and a range of activities for educational institutions or individuals who wish to visit the area for a week, months, or even longer.

We completed construction of our facilities by the end of 2008, and all licenses and approvals were in place by early 2010. Since then, our development has been divided into two main phases.

ThefirstconsistedofdevelopingaBritishSchoolmainlyforlocalstudents,aswell as expats, as the basis of our operations (see the following page). We opened the schools in September 2010, and two years later, we had already exceeded 200 students.

With thefirstphase toa largedegreeconsolidated,wearenowmoving intoour second phase, which is to focus on bringing in international schools and universities to our premises, with the purpose of creating an international enrichingeducationalenvironmenttothebenefitofourownstudents,aswellasthose from visiting schools and universities.

We have already had several international colleges here on both shorter and longer educational visits (see page 14), who have arrived on their owninitiative without any campaign from us. We are now looking to form long term relationships with schools and universities from a wide range of disciplines and from different countries, and this prospectus have been produced to help us achieve that target.

others according to the needs of each club)• Participation in the corresponding Spanish league, with all matches played in a stadium• Clubs pay per player per month. This means that if some players choose to return mid-

year, you only pay for the months consumed

We strongly believe players will gain very valuable experience from such an experience, which will be very useful if they later play in the Premier League or similar.
