Healthy Meals
Lunchtime is an important part of the day. At ISM, all children have school lunches and we pride ourselves on serving good quality food, prepared freshly on the premises each day. The three-course lunch menu, overseen by experts, follows Madrid nutritional guidelines and aims to provide children with a healthy and balanced diet. We understand the vital role that that good nutrition plays in supporting optimal physical and mental growth – giving young people the strength and focus to study, work, prevent illness, and fully participate in their daily lives. Lunchtimes also give pupils the opportunity to develop their social skills and to learn good manners.
In addition to lunch, pupils are provided with a snack during the day. The snack consists of either fruit, a sandwich, or biscuits. Adapted menus (such as vegetarian, gluten-free, nut-free, etc.) are available for those who require them. The full menu is always available online for parents to see.

A school bus service is available. There are ten routes that bring children to school from around Madrid. These are organised by Marcelo via his company Pear S.L. The company is independent from the school and you will be billed directly by them.

Religion at ISM
In line with our philosophy, Religion is an optional subject at ISM. For those who choose to take this subject, Christian morals and doctrine are taught, along with a broad overview of other major faiths.
In Reception and Year 1 Christian stories are told but most of the emphasis is on correct behaviour, the reasons for the same and respect for others in one’s society and environment. From Year 2 up there is more attention to Catholic doctrine, especially in Year 4 when pupils are offered the chance to prepare for First Communion.
In Secondary, pupils can be prepared for Confirmation. Pupils who do not attend Religion lessons have an additional lesson of personal, social, health and citizenship education as the alternative.
