King’s College, The British School of Alicante is an international school that delivers a British International Education, providing students with personalised and high-quality learning opportunities that activate self-confidence and boost the skills needed to achieve success. In addition, to providing a British education, The British School of Alicante delivers Spanish, Valencian and C.C. Sociales classes, which are compulsory aspects of Spanish education.
Our focus is on developing the whole child and not just aiming for academic excellence. Pupils leave KCA as well rounded individuals who are able to confidently transition to further education or the world of work.
Students are able to join the school from Pre-Nursery and leave the school having sat their university entrance exams. Classes for the youngest children are taught in purpose-built facilities adjacent to the main building and follow the English National Curriculum.

We select outstanding teachers for the IBDP programme who are the best in their field, speak fluent English and are experienced in delivering the IBDP programme.
The British School of Alicante offers students the chance to sit the highly regarded British IGCSEs at the end of Year 11 and are proud to be an IB world school, offering the IBDP bilingual diploma, considered the gold standard of pre-univeristy examinations.
At King’s College, we are proud of our consistently high pass rates in official examinations leading to an excellent record of university entrance.

Recent University destinations include: Cambridge, Stanford, ESADE, Complutense, London School of Economics, Imperial College London, Warwick University and University College London (UCL).
Not only are we proud of our academic record, but we are also extremely proud of our inspection record. Our school is compliant with all BSO regulations and has been awarded the Penta International Inspection Accreditation as outstanding in all areas, a testament to the hard work of our staff and pupils.
In September 2022 the school was also recognised as offering outstanding inclusive education and received the SENDIA award, benchmarked against OFSTED criteria. Furthermore, students have access to state-of-the-art facilities throughout including a large multi-purpose hall, a football pitch, basketball and multipurpose courts, as well as top-of-the-range ICT and Science facilities.
Above all, our school approach is guided by the values of King’s Group: honesty, faith and courage and our pastoral education and systems, enrichment studies and unrelenting focus on the safeguarding and well being of pupils under our care means our school is a happy, safe and nuturing place for your child to grow and learn.
