The Santillana name, with its strong association with textbooks, is present in a broad spectrum of educational resources in Spanish, both in Spain and in Latin America.

From the moment it entered the world of educational publishing, the Santillana name has gone hand in hand with the terms, quality, innovation and service to teachers and schools. Our advertising slogan “Santillana, contigo un paso más” (Another step forward with Santillana), is representative of its communicative goals and synthesizes the three elements which have made Santillana a leader in those countries where it operates.

The ability to interpret the needs of the educational realities in different countries and to tailor our response to meet particular circumstances (the regulation of the educational system, education programs, teaching habits, etc.) at given moments in each country has become second nature to our publishing teams.

• The quality of our educational texts and materials is reflected, in the conceptual rigor required by scientific subjects; in meticulously controlled language that ensures understanding; in the use of the most appropriate didactic strategies in every case; and, lastly, in a presentation which features attractive graphic design that enhances the understanding of the subject matter and gives our books esthetic value.
  
• The concept of innovation is reflected in the systematic inclusion of every resource that allows the teaching tools we offer teachers and students to take advantage of the latest advances in educational methodology, communication technologies and cutting-edge technologies.
  
• Finally, to provide service for teachers and schools. In Grupo Santillana our top priority is responding to the needs of teachers and schools by providing teaching materials (teachers’ books, catalogues of teaching resources, reference materials, etc.) as well as classroom management materials. This priority drives the development of useful resources which revitalize classrooms.

The publishing companies of Grupo Santillana, through their different departments, understand teaching needs and pay particular attention to all suggestions made by teachers. In collaboration with innumerable teachers over the years, we have produced a wide range of resources: reference materials, assessment workbooks, resource files, curriculum-aligned resources, classroom materials, etc.

The teacher service departments also organise education conferences, round-tables, discussions, and in general, forums where teachers can obtain useful ideas and resources for the classroom.

Most recently, the Santillana website provides technical assistance to teachers and receives their queries, suggestions and requests. It also provides a repertoire of creative solutions to supplement work in many different teaching contexts.
