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."

Nuestra directora, Marta Pérez, ha sido la facilitadora de esta asamblea mensual, un espacio en el que nuestros alumnos reflexionan y comparten ideas. Una oportunidad para detenernos, escucharnos y construir juntos nuevas maneras de entender lo que aprendemos.
Cada mes trabajamos un atributo del IB Learner Profile, un conjunto de cualidades que busca formar estudiantes íntegros, curiosos y comprometidos con su aprendizaje. En esta ocasión nos centramos en Thinker: pensar, cuestionar y encontrar soluciones.
Seguimos acompañando a nuestros estudiantes para que desarrollen una mirada crítica y curiosa del mundo que les rodea.***
Our Headteacher, Marta Pérez, led this month’s assembly — a space where our students reflect, share ideas, and connect. It’s a meaningful moment to pause, listen, and explore new ways of understanding what we learn together.
Each month we focus on one attribute from the IB Learner Profile, a set of qualities that encourages students to become curious, principled, and engaged learners. This time, we explored Thinker: to think, question, and find solutions.
We continue supporting our students as they develop a thoughtful, curious view of the world around them.
