Montessori. Bilingual. All-day. From first grade through graduation.
Our school between water and forest
The International Montessori School Berlin supports children and young people from their successful start at school right through to graduation. As a comprehensive school, we combine Montessori pedagogy, bilingual learning (German–English) and all-day schooling into an educational pathway that enables individual development whilst promoting challenging, goal-oriented learning.
As an open all-day school, we provide education and supervision from 7.30 am to 6 pm. At the IMS, we prepare pupils for lower secondary school qualifications, including admission to the Abitur programme.

All the students from 1-6 grade at IMS were mixed into 5 groups for our yearly Project Week, and each day, from Monday-Thursday, the students went to a different classroom to learn about Maria Montessori’s First Great Story: The Formation of the Universe.
