At the Colegio Británico de Cartagena, our House system is not just an organizational structure: it is a driving force behind identity, school spirit, and comprehensive education.
Inspired by traditional UK schools, this system brings together students, teachers, and administrative staff into three large teams that share a permanent bond throughout their school life.
Each House represents not only a legendary emblem of the United Kingdom, but also a universe of values and attributes that enrich our educational experience.
One family, one shared purpose:
Through the House system, CBC strengthens the sense of belonging, collaboration between generations, and the active experience of the IB student profile. Here, competing means learning together, leading means serving, and belonging means growing.
Every game, project, assembly, or cross-curricular activity is an opportunity to live out the values that define us and the attributes that prepare us to change the world.
Thus, at CBC, colors distinguish us… but values unite us.
Where each house demonstrates its skills and joint work.
Activities that encourage collaborative effort.
They promote creativity and personal expression.
Where students put into practice their solidarity and commitment to others.
