English and Chinese (Putonghua/Mandarin) are the languages of instruction across all stages, with Putonghua taught by native speakers and bilingual classrooms supporting language development.
The Mid-Levels Campus provides full-time bilingual immersion in English and Putonghua across all classrooms. Each classroom is led by two teachers, one English-speaking and one Chinese-speaking. Students experience the same Montessori lessons in both languages, reinforcing understanding through parallel language exposure.
Immersion occurs throughout the day in a bilingual environment. Daily Chinese instruction is delivered by native Putonghua teachers and integrated into the curriculum. In Elementary, students also attend a 45-minute daily Chinese small-group lesson in addition to bilingual classroom instruction.
International Montessori School (IMS) Mid-Levels serves children aged 2–6 in a bilingual English–Putonghua environment with AMI-trained teachers in every classroom. The campus is in Soho/Sheung Wan near Hollywood Road Park, used for short outdoor observations. Programmes include Foundation Groups (2–3) and Casa dei Bambini (3–6); Casa classes operate with a 2:25 teacher–student ratio and a three-year mixed-age cycle. IMS’s broader pathway continues through Elementary and Hong Kong’s first Montessori Middle School (12–14), where students take daily small-group Chinese and can join opportunities such as Model United Nations, student-led clubs, and community projects. The school contracts a bus service across Hong Kong Island; uniforms are required from Casa. Address: Mezzanine Entrance, Tung Fai Gardens, 17 Po Yan Street, Sheung Wan.
