American foundations and IB programmes

Benjamin Franklin International School serves ages 3 to 18 in Barcelona and operates as a non-profit school. Its published programme combines an American curriculum with the IB Middle Years and Diploma programmes. The school describes conceptual understanding and interdisciplinary learning as part of its teaching approach.

For a family comparing Barcelona schools, the useful distinction is the sequence of programmes rather than the word “international”. Ask how the curriculum changes between school divisions and how a child arriving from a national curriculum is placed. Older applicants should also review subject choices and the requirements for entering the Diploma Programme.

Published fees need an academic-year confirmation

The public page lists individual annual tuition of €12,950 for Nursery and Pre-K, €17,000 for Kindergarten–Grade 5, €18,240 for Grades 6–8 and €21,720 for Grades 9–12. Corporate rates are higher. The page does not identify an academic year for these figures, so they are excluded from budget filtering. Ask for a dated quotation including application, matriculation and entrance fees, plus any meals, bus service, trips and IB charges.
