Broad incumbents

• American School of Madrid: Established American international school in Madrid serving expat families with a wider curriculum portfolio. Comparable on premium pricing and target market (international families in Spain), but differentiated by US curriculum focus versus British/IB.

Direct peers

• Swans International School: British international school group operating in Spain (Marbella and Sierra Blanca), offering British National Curriculum with IGCSE and A-Levels. Comparable on curriculum, premium positioning, and Mediterranean Spanish expat family segment.
• British School of Barcelona: Long-established premium British international school in Barcelona offering British National Curriculum and IB Diploma. Closely comparable on target customer (international families), curriculum, and premium positioning, though in a different Spanish city.
