Celebrating multilingualism

At Boston School International, students build on their own language heritage in classrooms where languages flow together and make every lesson richer.

 

In active, multilingual learning spaces, students switch between languages, share ideas and grow curious about different cultures. Through this multilingual mindset, students connect confidently in a world that feels smaller and more globally connected every day.

Languages offered

Master English, grow love and confidence in Spanish as a home language, and study Mandarin from Primary through to Baccalaureate.

Preschool Primary Years Programme Middle Years Programme IB Diploma Programme

Preschool

In Preschool, children explore Spanish and English through play, music and daily routines. They use both languages in real moments and grow confident in simple conversations. They build strong foundations for multilingual learning in the years ahead.

Primary Years Programme

In the Primary Years Programme (PYP), students use language learning to build an international community where they feel connected and communicate clearly. Through everyday experiences, they use language to bridge cultures, strengthen relationships and grow as both global and local citizens at the same time.

Middle Years Programme

In the Middle Years Programme (MYP), students study Spanish A and English A: Language and Literature and use both languages to think, create and connect. EAL/SAL support identifies their level and guides progress so every learner grows as a confident communicator.

IB Diploma Programme

In the IB Diploma Programme, students pursue the Bilingual IB Diploma and study Spanish A: Language and Literature (High Level) and English A: Literature (Standard Level). They sharpen academic language in both, grow confidence and critical thinking, and build a strong international mindset.

Empowering every learner

Through a rich blend of language experiences, students develop the skills and resilience they need to thrive.

Personalized language assessments

From day one, students complete a personalized language assessment and a short language profile questionnaire. This first snapshot shows their current level and guides next steps. Students work toward at least a B2 level in English, ready to meet higher education standards.

Real-world language opportunities

Through International Opportunities programs at International Schools Partnership, students join cultural exchanges, debates and creative film projects. They use their languages in real situations, share ideas and respond in the moment. Each experience becomes a safe, exciting rehearsal space where they practice and grow confident.
