Welcome to Colegio Europeo de Madrid
Since 1989, our goal has been to develop the skills and abilities of our students in a personalised way, instilling in them a love for learning, curiosity, imagination and creativity.
By teaching students in a bilingual setting and a secure social and emotional environment, we pave the way for students to achieve their goals and overcome the challenges they set themselves.
We want our students to see the world as a place that is full of possibilities in which they can grow as a person and create value and well-being in society.
"Welcome to CEM, a proud member of the IB World community. At our school, we embrace the transformative impact of education and recognise the intrinsic value of each individual."
- Marta Pérez Ximénez de Embún, Headteacher

Hoy hemos tenido el enorme placer de recibir en CEM a Julen e Irene, antiguos alumnos de la Promoción XIII, que han regresado para compartir su experiencia universitaria con nuestro alumnado.
Su visita forma parte de OrientaCEM, nuestra iniciativa para acompañar a los estudiantes en la toma de decisiones sobre su futuro e inspirarles con historias reales de quienes han pasado por su misma etapa. Julen e Irene nos han contado cómo su paso por el colegio, y el apoyo constante de sus profesores, les ayudó a alcanzar sus metas, así como la emoción de volver a recorrer los pasillos que marcaron su camino.
Ha sido una charla llena de motivación, recuerdos y consejos, que nos recuerda la importancia de creer en uno mismo y en quienes nos acompañan en el camino. Ver a nuestros alumnos escuchar atentos, preguntar y soñar con su propio futuro ha sido, sin duda, la mejor recompensa.

Today we had the great pleasure of welcoming Julen and Irene back to CEM — former students from Class XIII, who returned to share their university experience with our current students.
Their visit is part of OrientaCEM, our initiative designed to guide students as they make decisions about their future and to inspire them through real stories from those who once stood where they are now. Julen and Irene spoke about how their time at CEM, and the constant support of their teachers, helped them achieve their goals — and how it feels to walk once again through the halls that shaped their journey.
It was a talk full of motivation, memories, and heartfelt advice, reminding us of the importance of believing in ourselves and in those who walk beside us. Seeing our students listening intently, asking questions, and dreaming about their own future was, without a doubt, the greatest reward.
