IMF & Montessori

Indian Montessori Foundation (IMF) & AMI Montessori Training Centres

As part of our commitment to authentic Montessori education, our school is proud to be associated with the Indian Montessori Foundation (IMF). In line with this partnership, we are sharing important information about the IMF and the AMI Montessori training centres on our website. This initiative helps spread awareness of Montessori principles and supports the growth of trained Montessori educators in our community.

About the Indian Montessori Foundation (IMF)

The Indian Montessori Foundation (IMF) is a pan-Indian voluntary organization dedicated to promoting Montessori principles of child development among teachers, parents, and schools. Established in 2009, IMF provides a common forum for anyone interested in Montessori education and child development. IMF is also the Indian affiliate of the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI), the worldwide Montessori body founded by Dr. Maria Montessori.

As an IMF Flagship School, we actively participate in this network to help spread Montessori philosophy and support AMI’s “Bold Goal” of training more qualified educators in India.

What Are AMI Montessori Training Centres?

AMI Montessori training centres are authorized institutes that offer internationally recognized AMI diploma and certificate courses for teaching children from birth to adolescence. These centres follow a rigorous curriculum that includes theory, material handling, and supervised teaching practice. A diploma from an AMI centre is highly respected and opens doors globally for aspiring Montessori educators.
