Regional players

• ESCAC (Escola Superior de Cinema i Audiovisuals de Catalunya): Catalan higher-education audiovisual school in Barcelona. Overlaps with Marxadella's Image and Sound portfolio (camera, sound, production) but targets a different geography and a degree-seeking student profile.

Broad incumbents

• ECAM (Escuela de Cinematografía y del Audiovisual de la Comunidad de Madrid): Publicly-supported audiovisual school in Madrid offering higher-level training in cinematography and audiovisual production. Overlaps with IES Marxadella's production and image-capture programs but serves more advanced and degree-oriented learners.
• TAI School of Performing Arts: Private performing-arts and audiovisual school in Madrid offering training in sound, lighting, camera, and audiovisual production. Operates as a tuition-funded incumbent with industry placement capabilities that compete for the same student aspirations as public IES Image and Sound cycles.
• CEV - Centro de Estudios del Vídeo: Long-established private audiovisual training school in Madrid covering video, sound, and production disciplines. Competes for the same student segment as IES Marxadella's Image and Sound department but with a broader portfolio and tuition-funded delivery model.

Direct peers

• IES Severo Ochoa: Public IES in Elche (Alicante province) offering vocational cycles in the audiovisual family. Comparable public-school structure and Image and Sound curriculum; another competitor for Valencian Community FP students.
• IES La Flota: Public IES in Murcia with FP Image and Sound programs. Comparable public-school delivery model and program structure serving a neighboring Mediterranean region.
• IES Carlos III: Public IES in Madrid with established FP cycles in Image and Sound. Comparable public-school structure, but with access to a larger and more industry-dense student catchment in the capital.
• IES L'Estació: Public IES in Ontinyent (Valencia region) offering the same Formación Profesional Image and Sound family cycles. Same public-funding model, same regional administration (Generalitat Valenciana), and same target student segment — the closest geographic competitor for Image and Sound vocational students.
