Private school in Arturo Soria

Brains Arturo Soria is an international school in the Arturo Soria area of Madrid that teaches every subject in English except Spanish language and mathematics. Our classes are equipped with the latest educational technology. Our students grow up having fun and enjoying our different playgrounds.

New Passivhaus Building

Brains Arturo Soria es un colegio sostenible que utiliza los recursos de la arquitectura bioclimática para proteger el medio ambiente. Enfocado en el ahorro energético, este edificio es capaz de renovar el aire automáticamente cuando los niveles de CO2 aumentan, acrecentando el confort, la capacidad de concentración de los alumnos y evitando la somnolencia.
Además, cuenta también con espacios de aprendizaje versátiles, tanto interiores como exteriores. Un buen ejemplo de ello es que una planta entera está dedicada a la construcción, mantenimiento y cuidado de un jardín natural que será 100% responsabilidad de los propios alumnos, fomentando en ellos el respeto por la naturaleza y por el planeta.

CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

Brains education

01 /

Music

We practise all different aspects of music in a fun way, providing all the necessary tools for our students to enjoy, create and understand the artistic language. We will sing, dance, play instruments, read music, practise active listening and discover the historical and cultural aspects of music without overlooking new technologies.

French and German

Firstly, we focus on speaking so our students can understand the language and communicate abroad. After Primary 4, we also include writing, which enables students to form more complex sentences and understand the language structure. All lessons are practical, communicative and recreational.

Choir

Our student choir carry out voice training exercises aimed at voice projection and correction in order to prepare and perform a repertoire at the school functions.

Theatre

Students will focus on theatrical aspects, script approach, body language, voice projection, diction, positioning, costumes, staging, rehearsals, stage fright, etc. In addition, they will work on choreography and prepare a play for the school end-of-year party.

Coding and robotics

This activity focuses on robotics and programming applied to robotics, drones, etc. Students will discover electronic badges like Arduino, combining electronics and computer programming. We will also work on design, including digital worlds, augmented reality, and 3D printing and design.

KIVA

KIVA is an anti-bullying programme implemented in all educational stages. Not only does it focus on the key players of the conflict, but also on those who witness, allow or encourage it.

Cross training

We will carry out different workouts in a specialised Box, combining gymnastics (rings, handstands, balance), weightlifting and metabolic training.

Dante Book Club

Every month we launch a reading challenge and students meet in the Library to exchange different views on the books chosen. Reading opens your mind, feeds your soul, fills you with joy and excitement; and we wish to make it a part of our students’ lives.  

FACILITIES

Fully Equipped

Classrooms

Our school classrooms are spacious, fitted with the latest technology and natural lighting. All our students benefit from these open spaces in their curricular and extracurricular activities.

Playgrounds and outdoor facilities

Brains Arturo Soria playgrounds are divided by educational stages. The Preparatory area is suited to the needs of our smallest students, including swings and rubber mulch floors. Primary and Secondary students can enjoy our outdoor sports facilities and new basketball courts.

Laboratory

A space for experimental science, where students can appreciate the advantages of scientific methodology and put theoretical concepts into practice, analysing and verifying every step of their research projects. 

Library

This is an essential area of our international educational programme. Open to all our Brains community, the library is a space where information and books are available to everyone. Guided reading, free reading, teamwork and individual study sessions make our library an ideal multi-tasking environment.

Organic garden

Our garden aims to raise environmental awareness, encourage healthy eating habits and promote a cooperation mentality. Students will witness the plants’ growing and experience this process first hand.

Climbing wall

Climbing offers students the chance to acquire a wide variety of motor skills and a sense of effectiveness.

Department of Healthy habits

At Brains, we are committed to the well-being of our entire educational community, from pupils to families and employees. This is why our teaching centres have a Department of Healthy Habits, which aims to ensure that the school environment is conducive to health, providing cross-curricular education on issues such as diet, rest, physical activity, sustainability, use of electronic devices, hygiene, etc. The aim is that we become more aware in terms of our choices and routines.
The Department operates at different levels in order to create a smooth mechanism that encourages future generations to adopt a more appropriate lifestyle and avoid undesirable health consequences, which in many cases are preventable if action is taken in early childhood.
At the institutional level, audits are carried out to evaluate a whole set of parameters that make the school a healthy environment: the dining room, quality checks and controls on the menus, areas available for games and activities, infrastructures, activities on offer, the promotion of sport, initiatives to support the environment, and much more.
With regard to our students, during their educational career at Brains they will take part in various information workshops, coordinated between their tutor group periods and different curricular subjects, with activities and projects that will make them actively aware of how our choices, and as a result our habits, can determine our physical and mental well-being.
The work that is done at home is also essential, and therefore families will receive complementary information, and activities related to these workshops to complete with their children, as well as being able to take part in information workshops designed specifically for them. In addition, all those who want to learn more from a team of qualified health professionals, will have a platform at their disposal, with access to the school for families (videos), informative articles, and support tools and resources that provide them with a constant stream of advice. It will also enable them to communicate directly with the Department if they have any sort of individual query.

Apple Distinguished School

One of the most important characteristics of the Brains International School Group has always been its ability to remain a benchmark in the field of educational innovation. This year, thanks to the unity and homogeneity of the educational project that exists in all Brains schools, Apple has awarded the Apple Distinguished School distinction and certification to the entire institution, making it one of the first in the world to obtain such recognition.

Perfil Instagram:

Being a Director at Brains, a solid institution with values, is having the opportunity to be part of something as big as the education of our students. It is in our hands to help them to be, not the best in the world, but the best for the world. From my previous stage as Psychopedagogical Counsellor, and currently as Director, I can confirm that at Brains International Schools we know that each one of our students is different, and for this reason we offer training full of possibilities that allows them to discover and develop their full potential, to that they finish their educational stage with an excellent preparation, which will accompany them in their academic and personal future
