The Academy International School is a British school in Marratxí, near Palma de Mallorca, for pupils aged 2 to 18. It opened in September 1985, growing out of a summer school with 25 children and two teachers, and a new secondary building opened in 2020. Primary pupils study at Camí de Son Ametler Vell 250, and Secondary and IB Diploma students at Calle Antoni Furió 2 (Ses Cases Noves).
Children follow the National Curriculum of England and Wales up to age 16, when they take IGCSE examinations; from 16 they can study the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme in English. Reception classes already have Spanish lessons twice a week.
