An important decision at the right moment
The final years of secondary education represent a decisive stage. It is the moment when academic interests begin to take shape, but it is also a phase where flexibility is essential.
Many education systems require students to make decisions too early, which can limit their university options.
The A-Levels model offers a more strategic alternative.

Amazing school, Amazing teachers, not good food and private forest High recommendedPosted on Noor AbuShabanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Muy buena experiencia , mi hijo ha mejorado mucho desde que cambiamos de colegio y estamos en la international.Posted on Jonathan TannerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our daughter has been at the ISCB for her last two and a half years of primary school and she has had a wonderful experience so far. We were pensive about how she might handle transition from a large international school in Singapore to a much smaller school here in Spain, but she has thrived in the ISCB environment. Smaller class sizes, the proximity to nature, experiential learning, and her patient, excellent teachers have helped her grow in both confidence and creativity. We are consistently impressed by the warmth and positivity of the school community and we are looking forward seeing it continue to evolve with the kids.Posted on Martijn van der MeulenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our three children have been attending the International School Costa Brava for the past two years, and we are very satisfied with the overall quality and approach of the school. The teaching staff is highly dedicated, professional, and passionate about helping each child reach their full potential. Small class sizes ensure individual attention and a focused learning environment. The school combines strong academics with a warm, supportive atmosphere. Our children enjoy going to school every day. They benefit not only from high-quality education but also from a healthy, warm lunch and plenty of outdoor activity, including regular football games on the school’s well-maintained sports field. Our children especially love the outdoor activities, with the weekly forest class being a true highlight. These sessions offer hands-on learning about nature and focus on developing independence and practical life skills in a natural setting. The student body is truly international, with a significant number of Russian and Ukrainian children. The school actively promotes the use of English as the common language, ensuring clear communication and integration among all students. We appreciate the school’s inclusive philosophy, where every child is treated equally—regardless of background or nationality. The school is located in a beautiful, historic building with stunning views, which adds to the unique and inspiring learning environment. As a relatively young school—founded around 2019—there is a clear willingness to grow and improve. Both the school and its staff continue to learn and adapt. Challenges are addressed proactively and used as opportunities for development. Keep up the great work. In summary, International School Costa Brava offers a well-balanced, caring, and professional environment where children feel safe, challenged, and motivated to grow.Posted on Ines AmatTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent environment and greater staff!
