TEMS was founded as an infant school in 1973. The original school was opened on Avenida Alfonso XIII in the centre of the city.
The Montessori philosophy always remained an essential part of Milagros’ approach. The school was ground breaking in Spain for this type of child-centred education.
TEMS is also one of the pioneering founder members of the National Association of British Schools in Spain (N.A.B.S.S.).
As the children grew older and since the parents were so satisfied with the programme, the school needed larger facilities. Our Montessori school in Madrid has moved several times to accommodate this growth and it is now permanently located in Aravaca.
New facilities have been added to the two buildings that were built for this purpose, to meet the children’s needs and accommodate the increase in the number of students. This has helped us to improve the academic and extracurricular programmes and meet the student’s ever-changing educational needs.
The English Montessori School is a private co-educational school which caters to the educational needs of students of the Spanish and International communities in Madrid.
