History

The school, which opened in 1962, was established by pied-noir people leaving Algeria.[3] In the aftermath of the Independence of Algeria large numbers of pied-noirs settled in Alicante,[6] leading to the establishment of the new French school.[7]

It was initially inside an apartment building on Calle San Vicente. Until 1965 the school occupied a building in Alicante. That year it moved to a different building in Vistahermosa, Alicante. In 1970 it moved again to Albufereta, Alicante.[3] Several pied-noirs had moved to Albufereta; 65 of them lived there in 1965. By 2001 French-speakers had a lot of influence in Albufereta and French was commonly spoken there.[8]

In 2005 the school moved into its current location in El Campello.[3]

gollark: Wait, wouldn't that either just end up hardcoding a big list of sites *or* end up just having to pull from search engines?
gollark: > also can you please pm me the connection finder tool (you write the username and it finds accounts of the same person on other sites)ħħħħħ
gollark: Inconveniently enough, both of them rely heavily on mutable state and are hard to test.

gollark: I don't know either. I mostly ported it from Haskell and guessed roughly what each bit did.
