The school teaches Italian and English. A bilingual approach uses Italian-speaking and English-speaking teachers who interact in their own languages with pupils. Preschool and Primary School follow the Montessori method. Language support is provided for students whose English or Italian proficiency needs strengthening.
Montessori Bilingual School of Milan offers a bilingual Italian-English environment. In preschool, a team of two teachers, one Italian speaker and the other English speaker, collaborates to educate using a bilingual approach. In primary school, work groups support language development with language objectives for students whose practical level of English or Italian is not high enough when they join the primary school. Montessori materials are used in both Italian and English.
Language immersion occurs in both Italian and English across the program. Teachers use their own language during interactions with pupils, supporting daily activities in both languages. Montessori materials are used in Italian and English as part of daily lessons. This bilingual approach is integrated into daily routines rather than isolated language coursework.
