Erasmus+ Group Mobility — school group programme in Spain

Erasmus+ Eligible

A 7-day Erasmus+ group mobility on the BIC campus in Benalmádena, Spain for school groups aged 12–19 — language, culture, paperwork handled.

Why this programme. Erasmus+ Group Mobility is the funded way to bring a school group to Spain for a week of English, culture, and international experience — hosted on the Benalmádena International College campus, a working English-medium international school. Students live and learn in English for seven days, the closest a single trip gets to a study-abroad term, and the Erasmus+ paperwork that usually makes this daunting is handled for you.

What it covers. The week runs as a project-based programme — teams form on Day 1 and build a project across the week, with the emphasis (language, culture, a subject focus) agreed with you beforehand in a planning call. Mornings work through English in context — speaking, listening, vocabulary, and the language of presenting; afternoons run cultural activities, a guided trip, and team project time, with English as the working language throughout. The week ends with each team presenting in English to peers and leaders, and every student leaves with a certificate that supports the school’s Erasmus+ reporting.

How it is run. A single school group of 15 to 32 students, ages 12 to 19, travelling together with their own group leaders. Students sleep either in the on-campus residence or at a nearby hotel, with full board, supervised by EUTA staff and your travelling leaders. One leader place is free for every 15 students. EUTA prepares the learning agreement and the documentation your school needs for its Erasmus+ grant. A guided Málaga half-day excursion closes the week (Friday afternoon, after certificates).

What Students Will Gain

Real cultural immersion on the Costa del Sol

Daily life in a Spanish coastal town — markets, beaches, Andalusian rhythm — turns the programme into context rather than a side trip.

Travel confidence and independence

A week abroad with the group builds the social confidence and self-reliance a classroom can’t — first café orders in another language, first navigating a new town as a team.

Erasmus+ funded school mobility

The one EUTA student programme designed to run on your school’s Erasmus+ grant — eligible for Erasmus+ funding, with the host-side paperwork prepared for you.

Learning agreement and paperwork handled

We prepare the learning agreement, the programme outline, attendance records, and certificates — the host-side documentation your school needs for its Erasmus+ report.

A week inside an English-medium school

Students live and learn on the Benalmádena International College campus — a working international school, not a hired conference room — for a genuine immersion environment.

Flexible programme focus

Language, culture, or a subject focus — the week’s emphasis is agreed with your school in a planning call before the group arrives.

Frequently Asked Questions

What level of English do students need?

All levels welcome. Before the trip we have a planning call with your group leader to agree the focus and calibrate the lessons. Students stay together as one group throughout the week — no internal splitting by level.

How are groups supervised?

Your travelling group leader stays with the students throughout the week and is the first contact for anything they need. EUTA staff supervise the on-campus residence, lessons, activities, and trips on the gated Benalmádena International College campus. One leader place is free for every 15 students booked.

Where do students stay and eat?

Students can stay either on our gated campus at Benalmádena International College in Nueva Torrequebrada, or at a nearby hotel (Flatotel International) — both fully arranged by EUTA. Full board is included — breakfast, lunch, and dinner from the school kitchen, with dietary needs accommodated when flagged at booking. More on the accommodation page.

Is this programme Erasmus+ funded?

Yes. Erasmus+ Group Mobility is designed to be funded through your school’s Erasmus+ KA-122 and KA-121 grant — it is our one Erasmus+ eligible student programme. We prepare the learning agreement and the documentation your school needs for its grant. See how the funding works on our Erasmus+ for schools page, or read the official Erasmus+ KA-122 and KA-121 programme guidance.

What Erasmus+ paperwork does EUTA handle?

We provide the learning agreement, a programme outline mapped to learning objectives, attendance records, and a certificate of completion for each student — the documentation a school needs for its Erasmus+ grant report. Your National Agency is the authority on what your specific grant requires; we supply the host-side paperwork to match it.

How do we book a date?

Use the enquire form with rough dates, group size, the students’ ages, and your Erasmus+ status (approved grant, application in progress, or just exploring). We’ll confirm availability and send a draft learning agreement and invoice for your school to review before any deposit.

What is an Erasmus+ group mobility?

An Erasmus+ group mobility is a school trip abroad that a school runs using its Erasmus+ grant, where a group of students travels together for a structured learning programme. This week-long programme is designed for that route — students live and learn in English on the Benalmádena International College campus, and EUTA prepares the host-side documentation your school needs for its grant.

How is a group mobility different from an ordinary class trip?

The learning programme is the difference. On a group mobility, every day follows planned learning activities delivered with a host organisation, and the outcomes are documented for your school’s Erasmus+ project. The travel, the fun and the beach are still there — they just sit around a real programme of learning.
