Supporting students during one of the most important stages of their education
Sixth Form is a transformative stage in which students prepare academically, personally and emotionally for university and adult life. At CBS, students are supported closely throughout this journey with personalised mentoring, academic guidance and high expectations.
Our aim is to help every student become increasingly independent, confident and ambitious while developing the skills and mindset needed for success beyond school.
Through close communication with families, personalised pathways and individual support, students are encouraged to discover their strengths, define their goals and prepare for an international future full of opportunities.
A flexible and specialised academic pathway
In Sixth Form, students specialise in subjects connected to their interests, strengths and future university aspirations. The British A-Level system allows for a more focused and personalised academic experience.
What are A-Levels?
A-Levels are internationally recognised qualifications that provide direct access to universities in the UK, Spain and around the world. Students usually study three or four specialised subjects in depth over two academic years.
Personalised pathways
Each student receives guidance to choose the subjects that best match their academic profile, interests and future university or career goals.
Preparation for university
Sixth Form students develop advanced analytical, organisational and research skills that prepare them successfully for higher education and independent learning.
A personalised pathway built around each student
In Sixth Form, students specialise in subjects aligned with their interests, academic strengths and future university aspirations. Our A-Level pathways offer flexibility, depth and strong preparation for higher education.

Academic challenge, practical learning and deeper thinking
Sixth Form students are encouraged to go beyond the surface of each subject. Through analysis, research, debate, experimentation and independent study, they develop the academic maturity required for university-level learning.

Students take part in hands-on activities, experiments and applied learning experiences.
Academic rigour
A-Level study develops depth, precision and strong academic discipline.
