Logos International School
Bilingual ES/EN with IB DP option. Las Rozas (El Cantizal/Molino de la Hoz). ~€10-12k.
In brief
Set in Las Rozas, on two campuses near the Guadarrama. Big grounds, strong facilities. School has been running since 1975 and the bilingual project has real depth.
The reputation in Las Rozas is academic. People send their kids here for results. Cambridge English pass rates are very high. EvAU scores are well above the regional average. It sits comfortably in El Mundo's national top tier.
Languages are a genuine strength. English from infants, French or German added at 12, Mandarin available. This is not a token bilingual badge.
The honest caveat parents raise, repeatedly, is the culture. It is high-pressure and academically selective in feel. One parent put it bluntly: "academically excellent, but if you want a school where respect and support for the student come first, this isn't it." Another said the school's near-perfect university results owe something to the fact that "there's no place for those who struggle." Take that as one view, not the whole picture - plenty of other parents praise the teachers as warm and attentive, especially in the early years, and rate the nursery very highly.
The shape of it: if your child is academically confident and you want rigour, languages and a clear path to top universities, it delivers. If your child needs more pastoral hand-holding, ask hard questions on the visit about how they support kids who wobble.
Fees are at the higher end for the area but not eye-watering by Madrid international standards. Las Rozas itself is leafy, family-heavy, and well set up for school-run life.
One practical tip from local chatter: visit both campuses, not just the main one. The infant site reads warmer than the secondary site to most parents who've seen both.

Reviews
- Reviews are largely positive and centre on a small, family-feel bilingual setting in Las Rozas.
- Aggregator scores are high: Micole sits around across roughly 100 reviews, with parents repeatedly citing a low pupil-teacher ratio and direct communication with staff.
- Academic results draw consistent praise. Leadership cites EvAU averages 2.5 points above the Madrid community average for 2023-24 and a top-15 placing in the region.
- Parents value the bilingual delivery, the IB Diploma route and the Cambridge Advanced track running alongside the Spanish national curriculum.
- The community-school framing surfaces often: parents describe close collaboration with teachers and a school that works to keep family lines open.
- Independent critical signal is light. Reddit and expat threads did not surface, so polarised commentary visible at larger Madrid schools is not present here.
