Welcome to The British School of Córdoba. Our mission is to offer exceptional education that is centered on a traditional British curriculum whilst also retaining the core requirements of the Spanish education system, allowing our students to validate their studies in Spain whilst enabling worldwide opportunities.

Students are exposed to full immersion in English starting from the earliest stages in Foundation and extending through the school to Year 13. However, our students’ achievements go beyond just being bilingual. Here at The British School of Córdoba (BSC) we believe in giving our students essential skills for life and the tools needed to succeed in an ever changing and uncertain future. In the foundation and primary years, children learn and explore through active play with first language English speaking teachers supported by local Spanish staff.

This approach encourages students to be bilingual, independent and confident learners with an enquiring and open mind. Being a through school our primary and secondary students are able to take advantage of the many fantastic facilities on offer; dedicated science lessons, daily Spanish classes, computer coding, sports and art, all support the core subjects.

A happy child is an engaged and fulfilled child! One of the many advantages of our curriculum is the worldwide recognition of the GCSE and International Baccalaureate Diploma programmes. Students leaving BSC at the end of Year 13 have the world at their feet and are able to choose between studying in Spain or abroad and they do! In recent years our students have taken places at some of the world’s most prestigious Universities including Oxford, Cambridge, Yale and Berklee School of Music to name but a few.

The BSC offers a strong values-based education, placing high priority on educating students socially and morally as well as academically. In both the primary and senior school, we offer age-appropriate assemblies where the importance of social values is explored and students are encouraged to take part in many enrichment activities.

The British School of Córdoba is truly unique and since its beginnings in 1998 it has flourished into a successful, highly achieving school where students gain the academic results and linguistic advantages that have helped our students lead successful and fulfilling careers. Caroline Ward Principal
