British School of Almería

What British School of Almería does

The British School of Almería (BSA), legally 'The British School of Almería' and doing business as 'British School Almería' / 'Colegio Británico Roquetas de Mar,' is a private British international school operating from a single campus at Calle Alemania 28, Roquetas de Mar, in Almería province, Spain. The school was established in 2007 (with its first graduating cohort dating to 2013) and operates as part of the International Schools Partnership (ISP) — a global group of 45 schools across 12 countries serving more than 45,000 students — under the LAUDE Schools brand, which runs 11 schools and over 8,000 students in Spain.

BSA delivers the full British curriculum pathway from Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS, age 3) through Primary (Year 1-6), Secondary (Year 7-11, preparing for Cambridge IGCSE), and Sixth Form (Year 12-13, offering A-Levels alongside Spanish EBAU subjects). The pedagogical model combines British curriculum rigour with Spanish system recognition, enabling graduates to apply to both Spanish and international universities; alumni have reportedly gained admission to institutions in Spain, England, Ireland, the Netherlands, the United States, Belgium, Germany, France, and Slovakia, including Cambridge University. Instruction is delivered bilingually in English and Spanish with optional French and German, by native and bilingual teachers. Supporting infrastructure includes several laboratories, music rooms, an art studio, multimedia rooms, a library, outdoor sports facilities (football and basketball courts), and an indoor swimming pool.

The revenue model is dominated by annual recurring tuition fees billed directly to families (rates not publicly disclosed), supplemented by ancillary recurring services including a breakfast club (from 7:30am), a school transport service across three geographic routes (Almería, Aguadulce-Vicar, El Ejido-Almerimar-Roquetas), a canteen operated by Aramark, and a July Summer School programme for ages 3-15. One-time revenue is generated via an online uniform shop hosted by EUREDA. Go-to-market is hybrid: event-driven through open days (Jornadas de Puertas Abiertas), complemented by a sales-led admissions process with personalized family guidance, a bilingual website with prospectus downloads, blog content, and inbound referrals from the wider ISP network. The school reports 100% A-Level pass rates with 81-83% of grades at A*-C, and has been consecutively recognized in the Forbes and Micole.net Top 100 Schools in Spain rankings (2025 and 2026), as well as receiving the 2020 La Razón 'Best International Educational Project' award as part of LAUDE Schools.
