English and French are core languages in a bilingual program. Dutch, German and Spanish are offered as additional language options. Language skills develop across age groups from infancy through Primary and into the International Baccalaureate secondary program. Multilingualism is encouraged as the norm, with subject lessons sometimes taught in a single language per topic.
The school offers a full-time bilingual English–French learning environment in the Toddler Community, Children's Houses and Primary sections. Each group is staffed by two teachers: one speaks English and the other French.
Multi-lingual learning environments are provided. In addition to English and French, Dutch, German and Spanish language lessons are available. Language instruction is integrated with the IB Programme, with teachers modeling language use across subjects.
The International Montessori Schools - Rotselaerlaan Campus provides a bilingual English-French environment for students aged 1 to 11. Housed in two residential villas, the campus features specialized facilities including "The Workshop" for carpentry, a hothouse, and a dedicated "Flora and Fauna Shed." The curriculum transitions from the Montessori method in the early and primary years to the International Baccalaureate (IB) Middle Years and Diploma Programmes for older students.A distinctive feature of the school is its "Land Component," where students engage in practical biology and sustainability by caring for resident animals, including chickens named Ella and Sheila and a rabbit named Florence. Proximity to the 205-hectare Tervuren Park allows for weekly nature excursions and botany lessons in a setting containing historical monuments and diverse biotopes. This practical integration of the natural environment into daily learning ensures that students apply theoretical knowledge to the physical world through gardening, animal care, and local field research
