Welcome to
The English Montessori School (TEMS)

We are a vibrant British private school based in Madrid, offering a tailor-made, holistic education for children aged 1 to 18.

At The English Montessori School, we foster a love for learning, celebrating the unique potential of every student and guiding them on a journey of exploration, growth, and personal development. With a rich legacy in Montessori education and a nurturing environment, we provide the support and inspiration students need to thrive at every stage, so they become caring, independent and confident individuals.

In Pre-University, we proudly offer three distinct academic pathways— the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP), the Spanish Bachillerato, and A Levels—empowering students to choose the route that best aligns with their strengths and future aspirations.

Join our warm and welcoming community of passionate educators, supportive families, and engaged learners. We look forward to walking alongside your child as they shape their own path to success at The English Montessori School—where curiosity is encouraged, and dreams are nurtured.

🎉 ¡Feliz San Isidro! 🌸

Today, Discovery House was filled with music, colour and tradition as our youngest chulapos and chulapas celebrated San Isidro – Madrid’s most iconic festivity.

Families gathered to enjoy a charming parade and a chotis danced straight from the heart. And of course, no San Isidro celebration is complete without churros and chocolate shared with loved ones.

Thank you to all the families who joined us for this joyful morning!
