| Students liked about BELS, St. Pauls Bay | |
| "The teachers are very cheerful and amazing." - Jesus Manuel López Márquez (17 years) | |
| "The school could not meet him as he was for reform and classes were taught in a hotel qualified to do, what makes me not being happy with the quality of the school (lighting, classrooms,...), was impossible to meet classes because they listened to the other classrooms." - Cristobal (20 years) | |
