Introduction
Madrid Active School is an international school located in central Madrid offering preschool through secondary education. It is authorized as a U.S. foreign school by the Community of Madrid and NEASC-accredited. The school follows an American curriculum alongside Cambridge IGCSE options from 3rd ESO, with a pathway that supports multilingual learning. Classroom practice centers on active pedagogy: students take a leading, active role in learning, moving from concrete experiences to abstract thinking, with a balance of spontaneous activity and adult-guided proposals. Montessori materials and differentiated zones organize the learning environment to meet developmental needs and promote autonomy, self-esteem, and social-emotional growth through non-violent communication and active listening. Bilingual aims integrate Spanish as the common language while English is strengthened through play and progressively more complex activities. Values include Respect, Inclusion, Sustainability, Participation, and Commitment. The school emphasizes family involvement and project work that connects classroom learning to the wider world.

Fees
Application fees - A formal enrollment deposit (matrícula) is required to reserve a place: the place is considered formally reserved once the enrollment payment is received and the school's contract is signed.
Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year) - The school does not publish a numerical tuition schedule for specific year groups or terms on its public admissions and information pages. Exact tuition amounts per term and per school year are not available in the school's publicly posted materials.
Billing schedule and payment terms - A place is formally reserved at the point the enrollment payment (matrícula) is received together with a signed contract. Beyond that, the school's public pages do not publish a detailed billing schedule (for example: number of instalments, term vs. monthly billing, or specific due dates).
Boarding fees (if applicable) - Madrid Active School is a small, urban micro-school; there is no indication that boarding is offered. Therefore no boarding fees apply.
Other costs and fees - Lunch/meal service is charged separately from tuition; families may also choose to send a packed lunch (tupper). - Families are expected to participate in scheduled cleaning shifts; if a family prefers not to attend a cleaning shift they may pay someone to perform that task on their behalf—this indicates there can be optional, family-specific payments related to participation tasks. - The school's public materials do not list published amounts for uniforms, school trips, insurance, examination fees, extra-curricular programmes, or other specific optional charges; where such costs exist they are not itemised with prices on the publicly available pages.
Refund information - The school's public admissions and FAQ pages do not provide a published refund policy or clear statements of refund terms (for enrollment fees, tuition already paid, or other charges).
Fee payment options - The school's publicly available information does not list specific payment methods (credit card, bank transfer, direct debit). Contact details (email and phone) are published for enquiries.
Quick factual notes relevant to fees - Levels offered (relevant to which tuition band would apply): second cycle of kindergarten (early years), Primary, and Secondary up to 4th of ESO; some students from 3rd ESO onwards may prepare as private candidates for IGCSE options. - The school does not operate a transport route (no school bus); many families organise transport among themselves. This affects any transport- or route-related fee items (there are none listed).
Summary about available information - The school's public admissions and information pages confirm that an enrollment payment (matrícula) and signed contract reserve a place, that lunch is charged separately, that the school is a micro-school without boarding or school transport, and that families have participation obligations (or may pay others to fulfil them). However, the school does not publish numerical tuition amounts, a detailed billing schedule, specific refunds policy, or listed payment methods on those pages.
Academics
Madrid Active School teaches American Curriculum, Cambridge IGCSE, Reggio Emilia Approach for students aged 3 to 16.
Curriculum
MADRID ACTIVE SCHOOL uses active pedagogy with students taking a leading, active role in learning and being the central element of the learning process. Learning moves from concrete experiences to abstract thinking, with a balance of spontaneous activity and adult-guided proposals in an environment prepared for developmental needs. Autonomy and self-esteem are promoted as foundations for self-knowledge and lifelong learning. Respect is a key value that supports a healthy learning environment, and non-violent communication and active listening guide emotional and social development. The learning environment uses differentiated zones with Montessori materials along with other manipulatives. Learning progresses from affective-sensory-motor experiences in early years to more complex personal and group projects in primary, with increasing abstraction in secondary, and windows to the world open to integrate academic content beyond MAS. Values include Respect, Inclusion, Responsible freedom, Trust, Participation, Commitment, Openness, Sustainability and Enthusiasm.
