What Makes ICS Madrid Special

Our school has been nurturing global citizens for over four decades, combining academic excellence with a genuine care for each student's individual growth. We follow the International Baccalaureate Curriculum embracing international perspectives, preparing students not just for university success, but for meaningful lives as confident, compassionate global citizens.

From our Early Years Kindergarten classes (K3, K4 & K5), Primary Years Programme (Grades 1 to 5), Middle Years Programme (Grades 6 to 10) through to our Diploma Programme (Grades 11 & 12), we maintain small class sizes that allow our dedicated teachers to know each student personally. This means your child won't just be a number here – they'll be seen, heard, and supported in reaching their full potential.
