Deutsche Schule Valencia is a German international school in Valencia, Spain, offering a bespoke curriculum for ages 3–18. The school guides students from Kindergarten through Gymnasium (grades 5–12) toward the German International Abitur (DIA) with a staged approach: Orientation Phase emphasizes settling in, middle years deepen subject work and personal development, and final years focus on Abitur preparation and career orientation.

From Grade 5, differentiated learning paths with extension opportunities and real-world experiences, including a Grade 8 German exchange and a Grade 10 internship, are available. The campus sits in Benimaclet, spans about 14,270 m², and has separate Kindergarten, Primary, and Gymnasium buildings, expanded in 2026.
