GCB Bilingüe Internacional is a bilingual international academy for students aged 3 to 18. Cambridge International is implemented across the school from Primary through Bachillerato, with Fifth and Eighth graders taking Check Point exams and Ninth graders taking the IGCSE. Since 2021, GCB has been an IB World School, allowing graduates to earn two diplomas: the GCB secondary diploma and the IB Diploma for university entry. The campus centers on the Isaac Newton Cultural Centre, which houses Preschool, Primary, and Bachillerato libraries, plus workrooms and a Cinemateca; a terrace and central garden provide outdoor spaces for informal gatherings and experiential learning. Facilities include a bicycle track, gym, a sports Coliseum opened in 2018, and a healthy park. The school runs a broad after-school program with sports, arts, and academic enrichment, including robotics, choir, ballet, and a Talent Show. Immersion programs in England, Canada, and the United States broaden cultural understanding. Cambridge accreditation has guided the curriculum since 2011, and since 2021 graduates receive two diplomas.
