The school has two campuses in Madrid. The Serrano building is surrounded by a walled play area and has recently undergone a full refurbishment. The second campus is a five-minute walk away in a quaint El Viso house that provides older students with a college-like atmosphere. Both campuses are located in the El Viso district and Barrio de Salamanca, near the República Argentina metro station (Line 6) and several bus routes. The school accommodates pupils from 3 to 16 years old.
After-school clubs are offered, and a program of activities is available to download.
Maxwell School is a British international school in Madrid serving ages 3 to 16. The curriculum combines the UK Early Years Foundation Stage with the International Primary Curriculum, International Middle Years Curriculum and Cambridge IGCSE, ensuring continuity from early childhood through secondary assessment while aligning with the Spanish Ministry of Education (homologation) requirements. The school operates across two Madrid campuses—the Serrano building in Barrio de Salamanca and a nearby El Viso campus—both within easy reach of public transport, in urban, culturally rich surroundings. Instruction is delivered in English with bilingual elements in French and Spanish, supporting multilingual development. Class sizes are small to support individualized learning, backed by a strong teacher–student ratio and a multidisciplinary team addressing academic, emotional and social needs. A distinctive feature is the Arrowsmith cognitive intervention piloting program, alongside STEAM‑enabled IMYC art projects and a broad after‑school clubs program. The school fosters global citizenship and growth.
