School Partner Program

Empowering Montessori Schools to Connect Montessori Philosophy to Sports and PE

We partner with schools to deliver a meaningful, sustainable physical education and sports program aligned with Montessori principles. This program engages students, supports educators, and strengthens your school community.

Designed for Your School

The Montessori Sports School Partner Program is designed for every Montessori community, no matter where you’re starting from.

Schools of All Sizes & Environments

Whether you have expansive outdoor grounds, a single indoor room, or a shared multi-use space, we work with what you already have, transforming it into a purposeful environment for movement.

Schools at Any Stage of Sports/PE Integration

Whether you already have an established PE program or are starting with no formal structure, we meet you where you are, refining what exists or helping you build a purposeful movement environment from the ground up.

2Voices Montessori School in Amsterdam
PARTNER SCHOOL HIGHLIGHT

2Voices, Amsterdam

2Voices is a bilingual Montessori school for children up to age 6. Located in the lively center of Amsterdam, the school operates within a limited physical space, which naturally keeps its program small and close-knit.

The School's Journey

We guide schools through a four-step process designed for sustainable change.

YEAR 1

Onboarding

The journey begins with curiosity, enthusiasm, and exploration. During this phase, schools develop an understanding of Montessori Sports, establish clear roles and expectations, and begin discovering how the approach can become part of their community.

Role of the School

  • Appoint a Montessori Sports coordinator
  • Introduce the approach to staff and parents
  • Begin engaging the school community

Role of Montessori Sports

  • Guide the onboarding process
  • Support staff and community introductions
  • Provide resources and initial guidance

Every school moves at its own pace. The years shown are a guide, and each stage may take more or less time.
