Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Metropolitan School Frankfurt started in 2007. The founder's vision was an international school with happy, self-confident children who would feel valued and have a sense of belonging. Today, the Mission and Vision Statements reflect these goals across the school, from the Early Years to the IB Diploma Years. The school emphasizes a family-style community and the social-emotional wellbeing of every student, helping them thrive academically and personally.
MSF has a diverse, international community of about 750 students from 55 countries. Student-led and school-wide events—such as Student Council elections, the Grade 4 Conservation Convention, and the Night of the Arts—highlight engagement and cultural involvement. Welcoming events for new families include info coffee mornings and Meet&Greet dinners run by the Welcoming Committee. Friends of MSF coordinates or supports events that bring together parents, students and staff, including Coffee Mornings, online Pub Quizzes, Gala Night, and International Day.
