Education at Coruña British International School

We are proud to teach the English National Curriculum at Coruña British International School. Educational excellence is at the heart of the British system and this philosophy extends beyond purely academic achievement.  

The English National Curriculum encourages students to see the world around them from a different perspective, to form their own opinions, and to express themselves thoughtfully, respectfully and intelligently. Problem solving, working effectively as part of a group or independently, and learning how to approach their studies with a critical, open and creative mind are all skills that form part of our students’ daily educational experience, and are skills that we believe they will carry forward into the workplace in later life.
