Our school between water and forest

The International Montessori School Berlin offers pupils in grades 1-6 the best conditions for starting school life. Around 120 children learn with us according to the principles of the reform pedagogue Maria Montessori. They learn German and English through language immersion. The children – no matter which language they speak – are always confronted with both languages.  As an open all-day school, we offer education and care from 7.30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Our state-recognised primary school is located in the historic Landhaus Oppenheim, about 5 minutes from Wannsee station.

Register your child now. NEW! Also available for grade 7!
