Monnet International School

Ourmission

Our school’s philosophy emphasizes interdisciplinary approach towards education to create socially responsible and critically thinking citizens who are aware of the world’s diversity and complexity. Our mission is to develop our students’ natural curiosity in order to make them lifelong learners. Our well-balanced curriculum permits students to learn how to respect different cultures as well as support their own opinions and ideas. We focus not only on students’ academic preparation, but also on their social, physical, emotional, and cultural development.

We understand international education as a multi-level ongoing process that allows students to understand and to respond to new challenges they encounter in the contemporary world. Our educational offer is created in accordance with international standards and teaching methods. All programmes implemented in our school are designed to increase children’s sensitivity to other people’s cultures, attitudes, and needs. We believe this approach will help young people to find their place in the international community and to develop their interest in being active members of a global society.

    We aim to develop in our students:

  • compassion,
  • Learner Profile attitudes,
  • ability to take socially responsible actions as a result of the learning process.
