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.
Who Is It For?
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, 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.
Our Approach
We guide schools through a two-step process designed for sustainable change:
Step One: Onboarding (~3-6 months)
Step 2. Mentoring (ongoing)
Getting Started: Pathways to Integration
We tailor each school’s pathway based on context, capacity, and vision. Choose the level that fits your school

Quick Scan: How Montessori-Aligned Is Your PE & Sports?
Take 3 minutes to reflect on how physical education and sports are prepared and integrated across your school.
The Quick Scan helps schools explore key areas of their sports ecosystem — from curriculum and environment to staff preparedness and school culture — and identify opportunities to strengthen child-centered sports.
After completing the Quick Scan:
Schools can connect with Montessori Sports to review results and explore next steps for integrating Montessori-aligned movement across their community.
