What Colegio P.A.Urdaneta - PP.Agustinos does

Colegio Padre Andrés de Urdaneta Ikastetxea is a private concerted (chartered) Catholic K-12 school operating in the Basque Country, Spain, under the governance of the Augustinian religious order (PP. Agustinos). Founded in 1972 and headquartered in Loiu, Bizkaia, the institution delivers a continuous educational pathway from Educación Infantil (ages 2–5) through Educación Primaria, ESO (Compulsory Secondary Education), and Bachillerato, complemented by the Club Deportivo Urdaneta (a sports club offering nine disciplines across 52,000 m² of facilities), pastoral and values-based programming, multilingual instruction in Basque, Spanish, English, and French, and supplementary services including transportation (43 buses), a daily cafeteria (1,875 meals with 40 dietary variations), and an online learning platform called Plataforma Educamos.

The school operates a multi-campus model across three sites: the main Andrés de Urdaneta campus in Loiu, San José-Urdaneta in Bilbao (Infantil only), and El Carmen-Urdaneta in Neguri-Getxo. Enrollment is administered through the Basque Government's official Ikasgunea admissions platform in coordination with the Departamento de Educación del Gobierno Vasco. As a colegio concertado, revenue is generated through a hybrid model combining tuition fees paid by families with public funding from the Basque Government. Additional fee-based services include transport, cafeteria, sports club membership, and extracurricular activities. The school employs 82 staff and reports 88.59% voluntary participation in additional professional development.

The institution does not operate proprietary technology or software products. Its digital footprint consists of a content/communications website, three Instagram accounts (one per campus), a Twitter account, a third-party virtual tour tool (TourMKR), and the Educamos learning management system. The institution has accumulated 32 Extraordinary Bachillerato Awards and 2 National Bachillerato Awards over 35 years, and its students have won 10 medals in the most recent edition of the Science and Economics Olympiads hosted by the Universidad del País Vasco. Approximately 32% of currently enrolled students are children of former alumni, reflecting strong brand loyalty within the Bizkaia community.
