A unique campus city with residence
Our student-centered campus, located in the heart of Madrid, includes innovative spaces that enable the use of new teaching methods and technologies. Furthermore, international students can take full advantage of a newly refurbished residence, which is a mere fifteen-minute walk from the college.
Our alliance with IE University
We are proud to have a strategic alliance with IE University, one of the world's leading higher-education institutions that shapes leaders with a global vision, clear entrepreneurial spirit, and a human approach. This partnership gives us a unique insight into the education and skills that students require to head out into the world.
Why work with us?
Being part of a school in its first few years is an opportunity to create something that lasts. We want people passionate about education who are unafraid of risk, innovation, or technology. We want to disrupt the way people see education and deliver something truly valuable for our students; a preparation for the next 20 years.
A start-up school requires teachers who are interested in education beyond their own subject; who have ambitions to lead in schools, who want to get involved. The opportunities for personal, professional development are massive, and we will be ensuring a substantial budget is set aside for accredited courses with either IB or our partner IE University.
