We are delighted to welcome IEP Group to the Dukes Education Family.
Following the partial acquisition of three schools in the Valencian community at the end of 2016, IEP was founded in May 2018 with the objective of becoming a major provider within the Spanish private schools market. IEP has grown to become a group employing 450 teachers and educating 4,800 students from 1 to 18 years old. This partnership with Dukes Education will enable IEP to begin the next phase of its development. IEP schools have developed an excellent reputation for high-quality, British, bilingual education with a strong focus on digitisation, innovation, social awareness and a holistic approach, and this will continue under the guidance of the Dukes Family.
Aatif Hassan, Chairman and Founder of Dukes Education Group said, “I have long admired the success of the group in developing independent, empathetic and socially minded young people and I am delighted that our first step into Spain is marked with this partnership with IEP. Our common values and commitment to providing the highest quality education possible will ensure the future success of our partnership and we extend a very warm welcome”.
