Introduction
BST follows the British Curriculum for ages 2–18, including EYFS, Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge AS Levels, and Cambridge A Levels. The school operates on two campuses: La Luz for Early Years and Primary, and Trinity for Secondary and Sixth Form. The Cambridge framework and the UK national curriculum underpin the programme, with IGCSE examinations at Key Stage 4 and Cambridge AS and A Levels in the Sixth Form, supporting entry to universities worldwide. BST preserves a British education heritage in Tenerife, dating to the north-island initiative led by the Yeoward and Simmonds families. Facilities span both sites: La Luz houses an EYFS building, a Primary building, a Neurodiversity Room, a Music Room, a Library, a Sensory Room, a Multipurpose Room, a Computing Suite and air-conditioned classrooms with outdoor play areas. Trinity provides Physics, Biology and Chemistry laboratories, an Art, History and Geography block, a Languages Room, Drama, Maths, Computer Science spaces, plus a Library and Dining facilities. The school prioritises wellbeing with PSHEE, a wellbeing practitioner, and a wide range of after-school clubs, including a parent association, Friends of BST.
