SHACKLETON INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL is a British school offering instruction based on the National Curriculum of England and Wales. Therefore, students who wish to enter at age 5 and up must demonstrate the minimum necessary knowledge.
All applicants, even if they come from another British school and/or are native speakers, will undergo a written test according to their age, and will have to present, that same day, the academic report from their previous school.
The decision, with respect to the suitability of the applicant, will be taken by the management team, which will also determine if any special measures are necessary to help the student’s transition.
Some applicants may be admitted to the school on the condition that they work with a personal tutor for some months.
For the 2026/2027 academic year, we offer courses from Nursery to Year 12 (first year of the International Baccalaureate), and we will continue to add new courses each year until we complete the entire International Baccalaureate cycle in Year 13.

In order to arrange a date and time, you will need to fill in the admissions form.
Shackleton International School will invite selected students to undergo an assessment of their educational level and skills. You will receive information about the assessment date and the cost of the admission test.
Primary students will be invited to spend a morning at the school to meet their classmates and experience the class dynamics.
Families will be notified of the assessment results, and if the student has been accepted, information will be sent to formalize enrolment. Shackleton International School will contact the previous school for safeguarding checks.

This payment will cover ELE tuition for up to a maximum of two years, during which time students will receive ELE classes instead of Spanish Language, Social Sciences/History and Valencian.
