Nuestra Señora Del Carmen

Colegio Nuestra Señora del Carmen is a semi-private school located in the Madrid district of Villaverde and is part of the Corazonistas School Network. Its unique character follows the pedagogical model of its founder, Mother Isabel, summarized in the idea of "to prevent and to love." The school offers early childhood education, primary education, compulsory secondary education (ESO), and Bachillerato (upper secondary, ages 16–18), and has a cafeteria, school transport, extracurricular activities, and a laboratory. Instruction is provided in Spanish, with the presence of English, and the school hours extend from 8:00 AM to 2:30 PM, Monday to Friday.

In the secondary education stage, which covers ages 12 to 16 and consists of four courses, the school implements various pedagogical responses to address diversity, different learning styles, and student interests. These include complementary activities programmed by departments and tutoring, group activities such as end-of-year excursions and retreats, group laboratory practices, English conversation assistants, and participation in the 4º ESO + Empresa program of the Community of Madrid, which includes voluntary educational stays in companies lasting three to five school days. The Guidance Department conducts individualized tracking of students and maintains relationships with families, in addition to providing career guidance.

The school has flexible groups in Language and Mathematics through splits, especially in the first years of ESO, and applies the Learning and Performance Improvement Program (PMAR) in 2nd and 3rd ESO with reduced groups and English splits. It also has a Compensatory Education classroom for students who joined the Spanish education system late and a classroom for specific educational needs, with individualized support and reinforcement. For students with specific needs, an individualized proposal is developed according to their level of curricular competence, coordinated between the subject teacher and the professional who monitors in the integration, compensatory, or educational reinforcement classrooms.
