Welcome to SEK International School Ciudalcampo

Welcome to SEK International School Ciudalcampo.

Our school is part of SEK Education Group, whose roots are to be found in a free and independent century-old family tradition committed to offering high-quality education.

We boast a demanding educational model that focusses on the diverse talents of each of our students and is recognised internationally. We are an International Baccalaureate (IB) school and are committed to offering its three programmes: The Primary Years Programme (PYP) Middle Years Programme (MYP) Diploma Programme (DP). We are members of the Council of International Schools and are accredited by NEASC (New England Association of Schools and Colleges). Our students are accepted by the most prestigious universities, both nationally and internationally, thanks to the excellent results we achieve year after year.

The 22/23 academic year was tremendously successful and we continue on the path of learning that we have travelled together so far. SEK-Ciudalcampo received the 2023 Educational Excellence Award for the Best Nursery School. I am also happy to announce that our year two Baccalaureate students obtained excellent results in their university entrance exams, with a 100% pass rate and an average mark of 8.088. In addition, one of our students obtained the highest university admission mark in Madrid (13.9) and ten students obtained marks over 13.5 out of a maximum of 14 points. Meanwhile, students who completed the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB) achieved outstanding results, with an average score of 33 points and six students obtaining 40 points or more out of a maximum of 45.

For this 23/24 academic year, we will welcome Real Madrid student athletes who will join our classrooms for their academic preparation. We will explore new ways of opening up to the community for learning the arts, sports and languages. We will continue to wear our uniforms proudly because it marks our SEK identity and we will use technology responsibly, among other initiatives.

We also offer our students the opportunity to take part in the Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award (DofE), an all-round personal development programme for students to enhance their skills. Furthermore, we are the first Spanish school to become a member of Round Square, that is made up of the most prestigious international schools, with 200 members all over the world and whose strategic objective is to serve as a platform for future leaders. Plus, we will be hosting the ISTA (International School Theatre Association) festival at the beginning of December.

In our endeavour to offer the best educational experience to each student we continue to renew our school and the learning we offer them. Thus, we continue to focus on our learning and teaching model that encompasses discussion-based learning, hybrid learning opportunities, an assessment system that provides feedback for independent and self-guided learning for all ages all within the framework of the SEK Future Learning Model, which is the result of the review of our Intelligent Classroom and was based on our experiences of online learning and teaching last year.

There will also be improvements to the sports centre, the open learning spaces in Primary, the toilets in Early Childhood and access to Nursery.

Along with the school teaching staff, I hope that this website will be an invitation for you to visit us personally, allowing you to choose the very best education for your children.
