Colegio Pureza de María

What Colegio Pureza de María does

Colegio Pureza de María Manacor is a Catholic concertado (government-funded private) school located at C/ Sant Jeroni 7 in Manacor, Illes Balears, Spain. Founded in 1892 by Madre Alberta (Alberta Giménez), a pioneering Mallorcan educator, the school is owned and operated by the Congregación Pureza de María Santísima and operates as part of a national network of Pureza de María schools. It serves families in Manacor and the surrounding Mallorca area, offering the full regulated educational cycle from Educación Infantil (ages 3–5) through Educación Primaria (ages 6–11) to Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ages 12–16), with a trilingual program (Catalan, Spanish, English) and Catholic integral formation rooted in Madre Alberta's pedagogical principles. Headcount is approximately 84 employees, including a directive team led by Hna María Paz Bonnín Bonnín as Directora Titular y Pedagógica General.

The school's core product is its three-stage curriculum, differentiated through proprietary methodologies including EMAT (multiple-intelligences math), ARIT (gamified math following Madre Alberta's pedagogy), PDB (early-stimulation program), and a robotics curriculum based on LEGO Education. Technology stack combines traditional classroom tools (interactive whiteboards, projectors in every classroom) with computer labs and a digital integration project in Secondary Education; communications with families run through the EDUCAMOS platform. Ancillary services include school cafeteria (comedor), uniform supply, book sales via an external online bookstore (libreriapmaria-manacor.es), extracurricular activities (robotics, judo, basketball, theatre, FOC youth movement), and complementary programs (informatics, chess, library visits, faith formation, study techniques). Recognition includes selection as an 'Escuela Embajadora del Parlamento Europeo' (one of six in the Balearic Islands), Insignia CEPS, and Sello Vida Saludable certifications.

The business model is a regulated subscription-style recurring revenue stream: as a concertado school, the institution receives per-pupil public funding through the concertación agreement with the Conselleria d'Educació i Universitat of the Balearic Islands, supplemented by family tuition, fees for ancillary services (dining, extracurriculars, extended care), and voluntary donations. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer through on-campus enrollment, the official escolarización process, open days, virtual tours, and an active social-media presence. Customers are exclusively families in the Manacor catchment area seeking Catholic, trilingual, values-based education; there is no B2B channel, no geographic expansion, and no disclosed revenue figures.
