The British School of Lanzarote

The British School of Lanzarote is a private, co-educational school founded in 1985. It is located 3 km north of Arrecife, in the pleasant setting of Tahiche. Students from a variety of nationalities attend the school from all over the island. The British School of Lanzarote is fully recognized by both UK and Spanish authorities and admits students aged 3 to 18. It offers a British-style education aligned with the National Curriculum. In addition to the UK curriculum, the school also provides the compulsory subjects of Spanish language and culture. The primary language of instruction is English. BSL’s facilities include bright classrooms, science laboratories, a library, an ICT room, recreation areas, and a kitchen and dining hall. Additionally, the school has regular access to sports facilities on the island to enhance its physical education program. The staff at BSL are dedicated, experienced, and qualified, with members coming from the UK, Spain, and other countries. Small class sizes ensure students benefit from a high level of academic and personal attention, helping them settle quickly, make friends, enjoy school life, and make good progress in their studies. All students participate in standardized tests and assessments based on the UK curriculum. At the end of Year 11, they take internationally recognized Cambridge IGCSE examinations, which serve as a solid foundation for further education. Students can also stay on at BSL for Years 12 and 13, as the school now offers International A Levels in its newly established Sixth Form department. The school has consistently achieved high pass rates in these examinations, with many students going on to distinguish themselves at university level.
