Planète Montessori International School

The Montessori toddler community nurtures the child7s physical, social, emotional, and cognitive needs in a safe and loving atmosphere. The adult is available for the child and listens to his needs, creating a relationship of trust that supports confidence and self-esteem. The childrenbs house (3-6 years) provides a multi-age environment that helps children become socially responsible. The environment is rich in material and meets physical, emotional, and intellectual needs, fostering freedom, trust, satisfaction, and mutual respect. Language development is integrated into daily learning, with a tri-lingual environment (English, French, and Arabic) that supports communication. Independence and self-discipline are cultivated through carefully prepared activities that promote concentration and a positive approach to learning.

The school has an Inclusion, Equality and Diversity Policy. The policy commits to inclusion, equality, and diversity in all aspects of school life and values inclusion as a core principle. All children feel secure and valued and have equal access to school programs. The policy states that barriers to learning will be reduced and that pupils with additional needs will receive appropriate support. A dedicated speech therapist and language support team provide language-related assistance to pupils who need it, and instruction is tailored with accommodations as needed. Multi-age classrooms and an inclusive approach support pupils with diverse needs and ensure families are partners in planning and progress.

English is one of three languages offered at Planete Montessori International School. The Toddler community offers tri-lingual opportunities in English, French, or Arabic, with language learning integrated into daily activities. Our International School classrooms incorporate both spoken and written language, and vocabulary is developed to support expression, writing, and reading. Children develop language skills through conversations, descriptions of objects, songs, and stories in multiple languages. The school provides language support through its inclusion team to help pupils who need additional language assistance. The tri-lingual approach fosters multilingual development and intercultural understanding.
