English International College (EIC)

Address: Carr. de Cadiz, Km. 189, 5 (A7, 29604 Málaga

Founded in 1982, EIC is one of the longest-standing British schools on the Costa del Sol—and it’s built a serious reputation for academic excellence. Nestled between Marbella and Elviria, the campus offers a calm, green setting just minutes from the Mediterranean. It’s small by design, with class sizes capped at 20 to ensure every student gets the attention—and challenge—they need.

This is the kind of school where conversations matter. Teachers and students work closely, pushing boundaries while building confidence, curiosity, and critical thinking. The British curriculum is delivered with purpose and energy, and A Level results regularly open doors to top universities around the world—from Oxford to NYU.

But beyond the grades, EIC is about shaping well-rounded people. Sport, music, debate, and community service are all part of the rhythm here. It’s a place where students feel known, supported, and encouraged to grow—not just into successful graduates, but into thoughtful global citizens.
