About

Hastings School is an independent British school based in Madrid which offers education to students aged 3-18 years, covering Early Years through to IGCSE and A Levels. The school is based on five campuses.

The campus at Lorenzo Solano Tendero is a spacious six-floor converted building located in a residential area. Our students are taught by our regular team of UK qualified and experienced teachers, plus our Spanish qualified staff who offer the obligatory Spanish language and humanities courses to our students up to Year 11 and the optional Spanish university preparation classes to those senior students who choose these classes.

Hastings is authorised by the Spanish Ministry of Education and is a member of the National Association for British Schools in Spain (NABSS).
