The school was established in the 2010/2011 academic year in response to demand from the local international community. Its principal aim continues to be the provision of excellent education based on the English National Curriculum.
The school is governed by a Board of Directors of The British Schools Foundation that delegates powers for the day-to-day running of the school to the Headteacher.
The British School of Navarra is registered at the Qualification and Curriculum Authority in the UK and is fully licensed by the Spanish authorities.
