Gibraltar is a small British Overseas Territory located at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula, at the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea. The primary source of freshwater for Gibraltar is desalination. Due to its limited land area and lack of natural freshwater sources, Gibraltar relies on desalination plants to provide its residents with a reliable supply of drinking water.
Education in Gibraltar follows the English system and the schools follow the Key Stage system which teaches the National Curriculum.
The official currency is the Gibraltar Pound (GIP), which is divided into 100 new pence.
UK notes and coins are also accepted and have the same value, but Gibraltar Pounds are not accepted in the UK and any unspent Gibraltar Pounds should be changed before leaving.
