Philosophy and Vision
Founded in 2002, the vision of the International Montessori School of Prague is to foster a love of learning and to educate children to be caring, socially responsible citizens of their community and the world. At IMSP you will find a dynamic community of learners where our diverse group of children, families, faculty, and staff are united by the common goal of empowering children to explore, learn, and grow.
The International Montessori School of Prague is a private school serving children aged 15 months to 12 years. We are committed to educating children through the Montessori Method and are the only school in the Czech Republic to hold an accreditation from the American Montessori Society. Our English immersion program welcomes students of all nationalities and cultural backgrounds to share our joy of learning. The curriculum exceeds all requirements of the Czech Ministry of Education and holds its accreditation, enabling our students to continue in Czech Elementary and Secondary schools; for our international students, we offer a pathway to International Baccalaureate (IB) schools.
We offer an authentic Montessori education that recognizes the uniqueness of each child as they become self-confident and respectful citizens and leaders in the world. For every age, the program combines high academic standards with lessons in respect, grace and courtesy, everyday outside play, creative expression, and a wide variety of after-school classes such as dance or yoga.
From the youngest age, our students are guided to reach independence, take ownership of their education and be active participants in their community. The school's goal is to foster a peaceful, nurturing community where each child is able to reach their fullest potential. Montessori students go on to become self-confident, self-motivated lifelong learners, having built a foundation of problem-solving and critical thinking skills and a sense of responsibility for self, others, and the environment. A testament to our academic focus is our graduates'? 100% success rate of acceptance into secondary schools of their choice, as well as in sitting the British Council language exams for our non-native English speakers.
