About The British School of Barcelona, Castelldefels

Since its foundation in 1958, The British School of Barcelona has been a leading independent school characterised by the pursuit of academic excellence as well as the importance attached to the personal and social development of each and every child.

The British School of Barcelona (BSB) is a great school in a wonderful location. We are an HMC school and were judged by our recent BSO (British Schools Overseas) Inspection to be outstanding in every category.

BSB is a large, very popular school for children aged 3 to 18. Our curriculum is based on the English National Curriculum and we offer a wide range of GCSEs, A levels and the International Baccalaureate Diploma, all alongside a significant enrichment programme.

Over 1600 pupils from over 50 nationalities attend the school and over 250 staff work at BSB. We are based in three locations: in the city centre of Barcelona itself, just outside the city of Barcelona – in Castelldefels,  and in the cosmopolitan town of Sitges.

Significant investment in recent years has seen the building of a Pre-University Centre (Nexus), a theatre, new science laboratories, a full-sized 4G rugby and football pitch and, most recently, a state-of-the-art STEM Centre.

Facilities & Location: Barcelona is one of the most vibrant, culturally rich cities in the world.

BSB City is our newest British international campus for children aged 3-18 in the heart of Barcelona city. It brings to Barcelona our international, future-facing BSB education to students from Early Years to Pre-University.

BSB City consists of two buildings that together cover all the educational stages: the Foundation Campus and the Main Campus.

BSB City is now open in the Foundation campus, an inspirational school located in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi for our youngest students.

September 2023 will see the opening of the spectacular BSB City Main Campus which will extend our provision in Barcelona for students up to Pre-University

Both BSB Castelldefels (Primary and Secondary) and BSB Sitges (Primary) campuses are minutes away from beautiful beaches and are excellently connected by public transport.

BSB Castelldefels campus offers purpose-built, modern facilities for students in Early Years, Primary and Secondary. This optimal setting supports and enhances effective teaching and learning that lead to consistently high standards of achievement.

BSB Nexus is a purpose-built campus for students aged 16 to 18.
