The ISI for this school also reported that 鈥渢he pupils are extremely well-educated in line with the school鈥檚 aims to deliver a transformative learning experience to all its children鈥� and determined that 鈥渂y the time they leave the school in Year 9, pupils are mature and committed learners who are more than ready to cope with the next stage of their education.鈥�

In the report for King鈥檚 Infant School (Chamartin), inspectors highlight that 鈥減upils make excellent progress from the Nursery to the end of Year 2 and leave the school very well equipped for the next stage of their education鈥�. Teaching is described as 鈥渃onsistently enthusiastic and often imaginative, cultivating extremely positive attitudes to learning and contributing to high levels of achievement鈥�.

In addition, according to the report, in King鈥檚 Infant School 鈥減upils feel very safe in school, reflecting the strong emphasis placed on their welfare, health and safety. The school鈥檚 safeguarding arrangements are extremely thorough鈥�.

鈥淥fficial British inspections are obligatory for schools in England and voluntary for schools abroad. The report is made public on the British Government's website. Many schools abroad are inspected, but in Madrid only the King's Schools have agreed to submit to this rigorous and public process, providing a guarantee of quality for parents and students鈥�, said Sir Roger Fry, Founder and Chairman of King鈥檚 Group.

About ISI inspections

The Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) is a body approved by the British Government for the purpose of inspecting schools in England and overseas. As such, ISI reports to the UK鈥檚 Department for Education (DfE) in regards to the extent to which schools meet the relevant Standards for British Schools Overseas (BSOs) and comply with the ISI Framework.

The inspection consists of two parts: a preliminary two-day visit followed by a four-day (team) inspection. The inspectors observe lessons, conduct formal interviews with pupils and staff and examine samples of pupils鈥� work. They hold discussions with senior members of staff, the Chair of Governors, the Chief Executive and members of the local Advisory Council.

Furthermore, inspectors observe a sample of the schools extra-curricular activities and attend registration sessions and assemblies. The responses of parents and pupils to pre- inspection questionnaires are analysed, and the inspectors examine documentation made available by the school.
