About Schweizerschule Barcelona
Schweizerschule Barcelona is a Swiss international school in Barcelona. It recently celebrated its 100 years' anniversary. German and Spanish are the vehicular languages. It offers a familiar learning environment for ages P3 to Grade 12. In Grade 12 students can pass the Swiss Highschool exam "Matura" which is converted automatically into a Spanish highschool exam. The school follows the Swiss study plan in combination with Spanish and Catalan requirements. Thus a switch to a local school is possible without any additional exams.
