St Peter's School Barcelona is an IB Continuum school delivering the IB across Nursery to Diploma in English. Pre-IB (ages 1–3) leads to PYP (3–11), MYP (11–16) and DP (16–18). Learning is inquiry‑ and concept‑based with a multilingual approach: English as the main language, with Spanish and Catalan integrated and French included. In Spain, the IB Diploma is recognized by the Ministry of Education for university access, and the school supports converting IB results for universities when required. Founded in 1964, St Peter's was Barcelona's first international school to adopt English as a primary language and to embrace coeducation. It is the only Barcelona school authorised to offer the full IB Continuum in English across Nursery to Diploma. Facilities include science labs (Lab06, Science Labs, Tech Lab), libraries, a nurse room, play spaces, a theatre, dining room, and sports courts. Afterschool Hub offers Thinkers Hub, Creative Hub and Language Hub.
