Parque Conde De Orgaz

The Colegio Montessori Conde Orgaz is a private center located in the Hortaleza district of Madrid, part of Montessori International Schools. It was founded in 1970 by Josefina González and María Altieri, collaborators of María Montessori, who founded the Asociación Montessori Española and the first Montessori center in Spain. It is an official international and secular school, a pioneer in the application of the Montessori model in the country.

It offers early childhood education first cycle (0-3 years), early childhood education second cycle (3-6 years), Primary (6-12 years), compulsory secondary education (ESO) (12-16 years), and Bachillerato (upper secondary, ages 16–18). The languages are Spanish and English. It has a cafeteria, school transport, and extracurricular activities. Its Montessori methodology is developed in a small school, with limited places, to personalize teaching and adapt to the individual needs of each student. It offers specific programs for gifted students, for foreigners who do not know Spanish, for students who do not know French, for those coming from other schools who need reinforcement in English, and for elite athletes, among others. It organizes a summer camp with subject reinforcement and English, personalized activities, and games in the pool, both for students of the center and for external students.

The admission process includes a personal interview with the family, without the need for the student to attend, and can be conducted via videoconference for families residing abroad. The center is well connected by public transport, with nearby metro stations such as Canillas and Mar de Cristal. Its hours are Monday to Friday, from 9:00 to 17:00.
