SCHOOL INFORMATION
SCHOOL HISTORY
Oakley College opened in 1989 as a nursery school accommodating 30 children. Over the last 30 years we have developed to accommodate 550 students between the ages of 2 and 18. The school is privately owned and fully authorised by NABSS (The National Association of British schools in Spain), the Spanish government. The school continues to develop and grow and in 2018-19 we opened our new Oakley Park, a 5000m2 sports, natural and recreational area serving the school community. In January 2020 we opened our new Infant school building, adjacent to the Primary and secondary site.
Oakley College has been recognised as one of the top 100 schools in Spain by the El Mundo newspaper and has been selected for the last 13 years (2011-202) as one of the top 20 International schools in the Spain.
