IB

International Baccalaureate Diploma

For seven consecutive years, our students have achieved a 100% pass rate in the rigorous IB Diploma Programme, consistently surpassing the global average.

At the Diploma Programme level, students can keep studying their mother tongue as part of the programme.

Our Learning Support programme is dedicated to meeting the unique needs of diverse learners, fostering an inclusive and supportive environment where every student can thrive. Through personalized strategies, targeted interventions, and collaboration with teachers and families, the programme ensures that students with varied learning profiles have access to the tools and resources they need to succeed. From enhancing academic skills to building confidence and independence, Learning Support empowers students to reach their full potential while celebrating the value of individuality and diversity within our school community.

We have a learning support teacher.

Thanks to small class sizes, a strong differentiation system and language support, students can join Montgomery International School with little or no knowledge of English up until MYP5 (Grade 10). These measures are designed to ensure that students quickly develop a functional proficiency in English. In Primary (Grades 1-5), some children start with no prior knowledge of English or French. Differentiation is used to support students' language development across different levels. In English, MIS offers extra language support lessons in smaller groups, and/or direct support within the classroom. Language is explicitly taught in the language classes through a variety of engaging methods, linked to the unit of inquiry/a broader topic of interest. In social studies and science classes, students can apply their language learning to other academic contexts in English in the English programme, or French in the bilingual programme. Students in both programmes have further opportunities to apply their language skills in a variety of subjects (e.g. art in French, theatre in English) and experiences (e.g. field trips in English, French, or a mix of the two). In MYP (Grades 6 to 10), small class sizes facilitate effective differentiation, enabling various phases of language learning to occur simultaneously. For beginners and those still acquiring French language skills, the curriculum includes French as Language Acquisition. Students are welcome to stay for an extra hour after school as part of the After-School Support programme, where they can receive additional support in languages or any other subjects they may need help with. Additionally, Montgomery International School has implemented a cross age tutoring system where older students assist their peers with their language skills when needed.

Montgomery International School offers a hot lunch service for all primary and Grades 6-8 (MYP 1-3) students . Alternatively, they are welcome to bring their own lunches, and warm them up at school. From the age of 14 (Grade 9/MYP4), students are allowed to go outside the school grounds for lunch with parental approval. We are within walking distance to cafés and delis - teenagers typically love to go out, as it gives them an early taste of independence.
