IGCSE and A-Levels and Spanish Baccalaureate
We follow the English National Curriculum, so our students take IGCSEs in Key Stage 4 and the A-Levels in Sixth Form.
Students at St. George’s work hard to achieve their goals, and we are proud of their success. This dedication is reflected in the 100 per cent pass rate in the Spanish university entrance examinations (Selectividad), and the consistently excellent results in the Cambridge English Language and DEFL (French) examinations.
