Personalised education tailored to each child's needs and interests, with tailored study plans that ensure each day is unique and supports ongoing progress. Children learn at their own pace under the guidance of expert teachers, preparing them to become confident and capable adults. The Montessori methodology is based on scientific observations of development and is supported by neuroscience.
Language immersion in English throughout the infant stage and 70-80% of the school day in the primary stage ensures natural bilingualism. The Children's House and Elementary classrooms provide linguistic immersion, with English instruction and bilingual environments. The international team and curriculum broaden students' experiences beyond Córdoba and Spain, developing confidence to adapt and flourish in diverse linguistic and cultural contexts.
A healthy and supportive school community where students of varying ages learn together; older students mentor younger ones, and teachers model respect, self-control, and conflict-resolution practices to create a safe, predictable, and harmonious learning environment.
The school fosters a safe and harmonious environment with close, mutually respectful relationships between students and teachers. Respect is foundational to community life and healthy self-discipline, supporting balanced development and well-being.
Montessori Córdoba International School offers a Montessori curriculum for ages 0 to 12 across five programs. The Nido (0.5–1.5 years) is an English-immersion space with a dedicated teacher for up to four babies. The Infant Community (1–3 years) provides English immersion that promotes independence, respect, and autonomy. The Children's House (3–6 years) offers a home-like setting with full linguistic immersion in English, where children learn to speak, read, and write in English. The Elementary (6–12 years) comprises three bilingual classrooms with 70–80% English instruction and the remainder in Spanish. Education is personalised with tailored study plans, and older students mentor younger ones.
