Welcome to Colegio Europeo de Madrid
Since 1989, our goal has been to develop the skills and abilities of our students in a personalised way, instilling in them a love for learning, curiosity, imagination and creativity.
By teaching students in a bilingual setting and a secure social and emotional environment, we pave the way for students to achieve their goals and overcome the challenges they set themselves.
We want our students to see the world as a place that is full of possibilities in which they can grow as a person and create value and well-being in society.
"Welcome to CEM, a proud member of the IB World community. At our school, we embrace the transformative impact of education and recognise the intrinsic value of each individual."

Un verdadero placer contar con nuestro Director de Innovación y Analítica de Datos, Jorge Calvo, representando a CEM en el IV Encuentro Innovation Hub CICAE: “Educar en la era de la IA”.
En su ponencia, Jorge reflexionó sobre el impacto cognitivo de la Inteligencia Artificial y cómo los algoritmos están transformando nuestra forma de aprender y pensar. Destacó la importancia de mantener la reflexión humana, la creatividad y el pensamiento crítico como pilares fundamentales en la educación del futuro.
“La IA puede ayudarnos a enseñar mejor, pero no debe sustituir la reflexión humana ni el valor del error como parte del aprendizaje.”

We are thrilled to have our Head of Innovation and Data Analytics, Jorge Calvo, representing the CEM at the IV Innovation Hub CICAE Meeting: “Educating in the Age of AI”.
In his talk, Jorge reflected on the cognitive impact of Artificial Intelligence and how algorithms are shaping the way we learn and think. He emphasized the importance of human reflection, creativity, and critical thinking as essential pillars of education for the future.
“AI can help us teach better, but it should never replace human reflection or the value of learning from mistakes.”
