How would you rate CBS, The British School of Seville?
Waste of time and money , everything is about marketing no education at all.
The school fee varies among the families. Some pay more than others, some pay nothing. Many hidden costs. Teachers change often. Students are bullied. Pupils speak Spanish amongst each other. The Headmaster doesn’t even speak English. The food seems to be ok. The premises are inviting, therefore I rate the school as poor, not as very poor.
I had a wonderful childhood and youth in this school. I am now fully bilingual and my level of English is as if I were a native speaker. I am very grateful to my teachers, who were always supportive and kind to me. I miss the good friends from other countries that I met there, many of whom are now in other countries studying.
Todo muy bien. Y cuando algo no va bien, me buscan solución. Mis hijos están muy contentos y aprendiendo inglés sin esfuerzo y de forma natural como si estuviesen viviendo en un país angloparlante. Cuando salimos de viaje ellos son nuestros traductores oficiales. El entorno es maravilloso y las seños son un encanto.
We have had a very good experience with this school. Our daughter graduated last year and has achieved excellent grades and made good friends throughout her years. The teachers are very dedicated and professional. All the staff are attentive and committed to the students. We certainly love the location of the school.
Academically my 3 children have achieved a very high standard of education. It is a beautiful school in a lovely, natural environment.
My daughter is very happy at this school. She is growing confident in herself and becoming an independent person while she keeps developing her full potential. Being surrounded by different nationalities has helped her to learn, respect and understand other cultures and to make a lot of new friends. All the staff are amazing, and that includes the teachers, the assistants, the cook, the secretary, the gardener, the bus drivers, they are all involved in making their daily life an enjoyable experience. The school also offers lots of extracurricular activities where children have the opportunity to discover things they really like, such as: theatre, dance, chess, art and crafts, other languages, football, basket ball, swimming and many others. They also have fantastic summer camps where children can go on kayaks, trips and many other unforgettable experiences that also help them to be more independent people. I almost forgot to say that CBS School is located in a magnificent natural environment within a beautiful pine wood. We loved the place the minute we saw it. We are grateful to this school for helping our daughter to become the wonderful person she is!
Unprofessional management and teachers , no values , no academic , no respect between students , it is pure fake marketing in media. After 2 years there , my children really suffered to catch up later in a standard school. Terrible experience.
I was contacted by the Deputy Principal for an Interview. She forgot about our interview and asked to reschedule. I provided a date and time to speak and I never received a response. Very unprofessional!
My daughter was very happy at this school. She entered University this year and she misses everything... the teachers, the environment, her friends, even the healthy food she didn't want to eat at the beginning... She's has had the best years of her life in that school.

I went to CBS for about 6-7 years. And I hated it. Probably because I could already speak Spanish. The girls in my year where so mean. And boys always messed about. Some of the teachers don't know how to control us. Its a good schools but at the same time its a bit of a waist of money.

This school is just pure marketing. Sending our 9 years old son to it was just like sending him to a summer camp to have fun while speaking in English. His time there was a waste of time and money. His school grades seemed to be great, but when we moved him to another school we could realize how poor his background was. I strongly discourage anybody to send his kids to this school.

A school that is desperately trying to give the impression that they are an elite institution but except the high fees there's nothing elite about them. There was a lack of basic resources and support, especially for children with specific needs. Achieving a high standard of education was not a priority, the main aim of the management seemed to be simply to get as much money out of the parents as possible. Their main selling point is the use of english, but the overall level of English is low and students with very little English were put in normal classes with no support. Your children would be just as well off going to state schools.
