King’s College soon outgrew its premises and by 1976 ten houses of differing size and design were in use in the Chamartín area of Madrid. After occupying these temporary premises for some nine years, the main school moved in 1978 to its present, purpose-built premises in the residential area of Soto de Viñuelas to the north of Madrid. Since then many improvements and additions have included a residential wing for boarding students (and later a new Boarding House built in 2011, Tenbury House), a 25m heated swimming pool, a 400 seat auditorium, a Music School and an Early Years Learning Centre. Pupils follow the English National Curriculum and are prepared for (I)GCSE and GCE "A" Levels, including a wide range of subjects. There are also optional Spanish studies and preparation for Spanish University entrance examinations, in the Spanish schools. Over the years, further schools were added to King’s Group – meaning that the group now has four more schools in Spain (Madrid, Alicante and Murcia), one in the United Kingdom and most recently another was opened in Panama (September 2012). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「King's College, Madrid」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
