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 based in one of the most attractive and prestigious residential areas of Madrid. The school is located in Avenida Alfonso XIII and serves pupils from Nursery (Age 3) to Year 11 (Age 15) and the older pupils studying in "Bachillerato".
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.
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 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.
There are currently five hundred pupils on role in St. Anne’s School, most of whom are Spanish, but we also have children from many European countries and from North and South America.
The School provides a broad balanced curriculum based on the requirements of the British National Curriculum. In addition, as is required in International Schools, full attention and respect is given to the learning of the Spanish Language and Literature, Spanish Social Studies, traditions and culture, which is the essential heritage of the vast majority of our pupils.
We welcome students of all religious denominations and pupils receive weekly classes in religious and moral education at all levels. The Department of Religious Education and Pastoral Care also offers preparation for the pupils’ First Holy Communion and Confirmation.
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.
