Montessori School Bali

The only AMI-accredited Montessori school in Indonesia, in Berawa, with continuous Montessori provision from infant community through age fifteen.

The school opened in 1998 and moved to its purpose-built Berawa campus in 2017. AMI accreditation means all lead guides have completed the rigorous AMI training pathway, which is the gold standard in Montessori and a meaningful filter compared to schools that simply use the Montessori name. Marion Price leads the school.

Parent feedback is consistently warm on staff quality, classroom environment and the level of attention each child gets. The natural fit is families who already know Montessori well from elsewhere and want their child to continue that pedagogy through to early adolescence. Less suitable for families who want a conventional graded environment with regular tests and a clear British or IB credential at the end. Most students transition out for upper secondary, so families need a plan for the IGCSE or Diploma years.

A long-running, purpose-built Montessori setting in Berawa that draws steady praise for its campus, AMI-trained guides, and the visible calm of its classrooms. Most of what comes through is positive: families talk about engaged children, regular updates from teachers, and a sprawling, green site that feels different to the standard international school. The honest catch is location: Berawa has gone from quiet to one of the busiest stretches on the island, and the school run is now part of the decision.
