About the School - The British School of Barcelona
BSB is a leading international school and member of HMC. A recent BSO inspection judged the school to be outstanding in every area, including quality of education, safeguarding, pupil welfare and academic outcomes. BSB is a large, very popular school for children aged 3 to 18. Our curriculum is based on the English National Curriculum, and we offer a wide range of GCSEs, A levels and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme, all alongside a significant enrichment programme. Over 2000 pupils from more than 74 nationalities attend the school and over 315 staff work at BSB. We are based in three locations, two just outside the city of Barcelona – in Castelldefels, where we have a Primary, Secondary and Pre‑University campus, and in the cosmopolitan town of Sitges, where we have another Primary campus. BSB City is in the heart of Barcelona, with a Foundation campus (opened September 2021) and a brand‑new main campus which opened in September 2023. In September 2026 we will open our new, state‑of‑the‑art campus at Maresme, east of Barcelona city. Barcelona is a wonderful place to live, combining an amazing city with beach and mountains nearby. The quality of life is excellent with a mild climate and year‑round sunshine. The school now has an exciting opportunity for an experienced Speech and Language Therapist to join our fantastic team.
