Spear’s Review

King’s College Soto (The British School of Madrid) is a co-educational British day and boarding school in Tres Cantos, just north of Madrid. It boasts premium indoor and outdoor facilities on an extensive 12-acre site, including tennis courts, football pitches, two multimedia centres, an art studio and a horse riding centre. 

The education programme at King’s is based on the English national curriculum; however, since 2020 the school has also offered the IB diploma. 

Students from King’s do well academically, with more than 70 per cent of A-Level results between A* and B. The school enthuses that all of the top 10 British universities have previously accepted its pupils.
