Runnymede College is a private non-denominational British school in Madrid offering a British education to boys and girls of all nationalities from the age of two to eighteen. The education offered follows the British National Curriculum.
Founded as a private school in September 1967, the primary school was inaugurated in 1987, and since 1990, the whole School has been located in La Moraleja, in the north of Madrid. The School is divided into Pre-Prep (Pre Nursery to Year 3), Prep (Years 4 to 8) and Senior School (Years 9 to 13).
Academic levels are high at Runnymede College. In June 2025, 57% of our students achieved A-A* at A level. This is particularly impressive when compared with the 48% of A*-A grades achieved at independent (private) schools in England this year. In addition, 67% of our pupils gained A*-A grades at IGCSE. Once again, this is a truly excellent achievement when compared with the 48% of A*- A grades at GCSE obtained in the English independent (private) school sector.
In the graduating class of 2025 83% of pupils going to the UK will be attending Top 10 universities (as ranked by the Sunday Times Good University Guide). Top-ranking UK universities welcoming this year’s graduates include Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, UCL and LSE. Students in the US have already started their higher education at Harvard, Columbia, UPenn and Brown, amongst other excellent colleges.
A number of our students will be staying in Spain, at top-notch places including ICADE, IE and ICAI; others will continue their education elsewhere in Europe in world-leading institutions in France and Ireland.
Join a rewarding and exciting learning environment, both within and beyond the classroom. Any candidate should be willing to play an active role in the co-curricular life of the school.
