Sotogrande International School

Address: Av. de la Reserva, s/n, 11310 Sotogrande, Cádiz

Sotogrande International School blends rigorous academics with the laid-back beauty of the Costa del Sol. Just a short drive from Málaga and nestled in one of Andalucía’s most exclusive residential areas, this elite IB World School has built a reputation since 1978 for turning out globally minded, high-achieving students. With over 80 nationalities represented, it’s a truly international community where diversity is the norm and every voice counts.

The full International Baccalaureate pathway is on offer—from early childhood to Diploma Programme—supported by Apple Distinguished tech resources, expert faculty, and small-class mentoring. Students can tailor their academic journey, with three distinct pathways at age 16 and access to elite sports programs in golf and tennis. In 2023, they achieved a 100% IB pass rate—proof that the school’s personalised approach works.

Add in world-class boarding options and a strong track record for university admissions across Europe, the US, and beyond, and you’ve got one of the most compelling international schools in Spain. This is more than just a place to study—it’s a launchpad for global success.
