The British School of Barcelona (BSB)
Reviews & Information

My daughter is thriving at BSB Castelldefels. Yes maybe the school over promotes itself which can leave a sour taste in your mouth. My daughter is in YR6 and has been to schools in Singapore and London and I can rate BSB with those. We are happy . My daughter is happy. There is great communication from the school and a really welcoming parent community.

Si pudiera otorgar 0 estrellas, lo haría. Hay escuelas mucho mejores por el mismo dinero. Mi hijo estaba muy descontento en BSB. Creo que los profesores sienten lo mismo

Don't be misled by the facilities, this institution is nothing more than a money making machine. Want your child to be treated like a number instead of a child who needs to be nurtured? This is your place. The amount of self-promotion this school undertakes is astonishing. But then again, with students leaving so quickly, is it any surprise?

Terrible place. They sent my daughter home multiple times because she was getting bullied instead of tackling the bullying issue head on. Bullying is commonplace in BSB Sitges and this has had a lasting impact on my daughter.

The BSB has better facilities than other English speaking International schools however, the teaching quality in the other English speaking International school is far above BSB. Don't be fooled by the fake awards and accolades. Toxic environments do not help grow happy, well educated children.

If you're looking for a British education, this establishment does not offer it. Please don't be fooled by the glossy website and private tours. The school is plagued by poor quality teaching and huge staff absence. Please do not be fooled, your child's education is not something to be risked.

Sitges campus. This school is all about marketing. International Penta Outstanding? The only thing astounding here is how they reel new parents in with flashy presentations and portray how well the children perform. In reality, the school is plagued with staffing issues and supply teachers are commonplace, even in early years. The teachers may originate from the U.K. but they would be hard pushed to secure jobs in an underperforming state school, let alone a private institution. If you’re looking for nurturing, attuned childcare which is up to a true British standard, this school does not offer jt. Do not be fooled by the presentations and marketing material. Your child’s education is something you cannot afford to get wrong.

My daughter got expelled by BUROFAX saying we were not página the fees. Pandemic came, school suspended attendance of children and we parents suspended payments in accordance with New pandemic regulations, they denied everything and ignored communications and negotiations to resolve the situation, as other comments above, they're after the money (investment fund). Run away from this school if you care about your children.

By far the best quality education in the local area. Outstanding results (my son has gained great GCSEs and is now going to a top university) and the wider development of my children has also been superb! The recent inspection means it is the only BSO school in Catalunya. This says it all!

Don't get fooled by their facilities. All the rest is worthless. This school used to be one of the bests in Barcelona, but was acquired by a financial fund and since, it is just a business. Lacks of respect, bullying, non attendance of teachers (in higher classes, for MONTHS), no explanations to the parents, copy-paste reports, no obligations or responsibilities... this school is every year worse, but as it is full of rich people, able to pay almost 20.000€, they make a lot of publicity. Just ask them for the IB or A Levels results... not in line with the price you pay. You have way better options.
