From the head of primary

"The International School of Madrid is a leading private British school, conveniently located in the Chamartín neighbourhood in the centre of Madrid.

"Our well-qualified and experienced teachers follow the English National Curriculum, which means that students gain an education as if they were in a school in the UK. Classes are taught in English and delivered in the British way. The academic standard of our school is high. 100 percent of students that graduated in 2021 are currently at university, not just in the UK and Spain, but around the world. We recognise that each student is unique and care passionately about their social and moral development. We are committed to providing the best possible start in life for every one of our pupils."

– Rich Cook, Head of Primary
