St. Anne’s School – A British School in the heart of Madrid. 

Celebrating 40 Years of Quality British Education

St. Anne's School was established in 1969 and is a co-educational independent school which provides a British education for children aged three to eighteen in Madrid. The school is located in Avenida Alfonso XII, which is in Chamartin, one of the most attractive and prestigious residential areas of Madrid, and is easily accessible from most of the city. St. Anne’s s pupils range from Nursery (Age 3) to Year 13 (Age 18). There are currently almost five hundred pupils enrolled in St. Anne’s School, the majority of whom are Spanish.

St. Anne’s School is committed to providing quality education. We offer a wide range of learning opportunities to all our students in academic, social, cultural and sporting activities, in order to encourage all our students to realise their full potential, to recognise and appreciate excellence, to develop reasoned attitudes, values and beliefs, to respect other races, religions and cultures, to seek success and to accept for themselves the highest standards of work and behaviour.

The School provides a broad balanced curriculum based on the requirements of the British National Curriculum. In addition, full attention and respect are given to the learning of Spanish Language and Literature, Spanish Social Studies, traditions and culture, which is the heritage of the vast majority of our pupils. We welcome students of all religious denominations and pupils at all levels receive weekly classes in religious and moral education. The Department of Religious Education also offers preparation for the pupils’ First Holy Communion and Confirmation.

The final two years of education adhere to the requirements of the Spanish Bachillerato and preparation for the university entrance examinations (PAU), although special emphasis continues to be given to English, with preparation for the University of Cambridge Advanced and Proficiency examinations

In St. Anne’s School, we strive for success through positive staff-student relationships, a safe, happy and disciplined environment, strengthening partnerships with parents and the wider community and the recruitment and training of a committed and well established staff.

Our ultimate goal is to empower students with the knowledge, skills, self-respect, independence and self motivation necessary to be ready to accept the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of adult life and to play a full and active role within society.

St. Anne’s School offers pupils a wide range of courses that lead to qualifications from quality institutions including the University of Cambridge International Examinations, University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations, London Edexcel, the Diplôme élémentaire de langue française (DELF) and the L.O.G.S.E. Selectividad. Pupils can also participate in a wide range of extra curricular activities including classical ballet, Piano lessons, Chess, French, Judo, Fencing and Football.  

St. Anne’s School is a member of the National Association of British Schools in Spain (NABSS) and is inspected by this body as well as by the Spanish Ministry of Education.
