We are Highlands

Highlands is a private bilingual school in Boadilla del Monte, Madrid, committed to the comprehensive education of its students from 4 months through to Sixth Form (Bachillerato). Founded in 2007, the school focuses on academic excellence, personal development and an innovative approach with a Christian vision.

Innovation

This is the spirit of Highlands: a bilingual education that seeks academic and human excellence, in a family environment of support and technological, pedagogical and sporting innovation. In the natural setting of Boadilla del Monte and accredited as a Microsoft Showcase School, Los Fresnos will be the school that educates them for life.

Mission, vision and values

Our motto, Semper Altius (always higher), tells us that in the process of education we need to keep walking, climbing and going beyond ourselves to reach the fullness to which we are called. That is why we seek to:

  • Give our pupils an understanding of the globalised world they live in so that, through their command of other languages, they can build an international profile
  • Bring up pupils who are recognised as excellent people as well as excellent professionals
  • To train students who are role models in life and transformative leaders of society.
  • To be a reference institution for those seeking comprehensive education for their children,
