Our curriculum

At our private kindergarten in Madrid, children develop strong values and language skills from the very start. Through immersive English education and skill-building in a nurturing environment, they lay the foundation for lifelong success. The curriculum focuses on seven key areas of learning, with three main areas supporting personal growth and essential foundational skills.

Personal, Social and Emotional Development

Grow in confidence and empathy 

As children openly share their thoughts, questions and feelings, they grow in confidence and empathy. Teachers guide these interactions, helping students build self-awareness, form strong relationships and navigate emotions effectively.

In our nurturing environment, children develop the resilience and communication skills to thrive socially and emotionally. 

Personal, Social and Emotional Development

Communication and Language

Develop confident communication 

At St. George Madrid, students focus on developing confident communication and language skills from the beginning. They engage in meaningful conversations with teachers and peers, enhancing their listening, understanding and speaking abilities.

Storytime becomes an interactive experience where they discuss characters, plot and ideas, expanding their vocabulary and comprehension. Through storytelling and guided discussions, students learn to express their thoughts clearly and build the foundation for literacy.

Communication and Language

Physical Development

Express themselves

Movement and play help little learners develop coordination, express themselves and make healthy lifestyle choices. 

Creative indoor and outdoor spaces encourage active engagement, building confidence and physical awareness. Physical activity is vital at this stage, enabling children to explore their environment safely and effectively, while also enhancing their overall wellbeing.

Physical Development

Literacy

Love of reading and writing

At St. George Madrid, children discover that literacy is exciting, sparking a lifelong journey of reading and writing. During their time with us, students begin to read and understand simple sentences, developing the skills to decode words accurately and speak fluently. 

Through engaging discussions about the stories they explore, students show their understanding of both the text and the narrative. As they progress in writing, they apply their phonics knowledge to represent spoken words correctly and craft simple sentences. This is where the adventure of learning begins. 

Literacy

Mathematics

Problem solving  

In mathematics, children build strong counting skills from 1 to 20 and learn to arrange numbers in the correct order. They can identify which number comes before or after another. By using real-world objects, they practice adding and subtracting single-digit numbers and counting both forwards and backwards to find the answer.  

As budding problem-solvers, they begin to explore more advanced concepts like doubling, halving and sharing. They also use everyday language to compare quantities and objects based on size, weight, capacity, position, distance, time and money, further strengthening their problem-solving abilities.  

Mathematics

Understanding the World

Discover communities

Children love to share stories about their past experiences and current adventures, not only from their own lives but also from their families. They enjoy exploring what makes them alike and different from others, as well as learning about diverse families, communities and traditions. Their curiosity extends to the variety of places, objects, materials and living things.   

In our International school in Madrid, children are encouraged to explore the uniqueness of their immediate surroundings and discover how different environments can be. From exploring nature to discussing changes they observe, learning about the world becomes a fun and engaging adventure!
