An education experience unique to Sydney’s Inner West
“The Montessori method takes advantage of children’s natural need and desire to learn.”
Our Graduates
ISMS graduates are the best testament to the benefits of an ISMS Montessori education. Their confidence, self-esteem and discipline and their comprehensive academic grounding serves the children well in making successful adjustments to the larger more traditional high school environment. The consistent emphasis of ISMS on the development of the whole child from birth until the completion of Stage 3 means that our graduates are well-rounded, socially adept young people ready to face, adapt to and successfully meet the social and academic challenges of high school.
Our children move on to a variety of high schools; state high schools both selective and comprehensive; religious independent schools; and a range of other private high schools.
High schools chosen by graduates and their parents in the past few years include:
- The Conservatorium of Music
- International Grammar School
- St Joseph’s College at Hunter’s Hill
- SCEGGS Darlinghurst
- Newington College
- PLC Sydney
- Riverside Girls’ High School
We anticipate that in the not too distant future our graduates will be able to choose a Montessori Secondary School to continue their broad and deep education until university.
