Montessori British School's Nomad programme brings flexible online learning to families on the move
The Nomad programme gives students structure and British educational standards wherever life takes their family
Every family's situation is different. Some students travel frequently, some train at a high level, some live outside Spain, and others simply need an alternative to the traditional school system. Montessori British School in Murcia created Nomad, its online education programme, with exactly these families in mind.
Far from being a solitary screen-based experience, Nomad combines live classes, close support and genuine flexibility, allowing each student to progress at their own pace without losing academic continuity or social life.
The school day is designed to keep students engaged without wearing them out. Classes run live, with students connecting daily in real time with teachers and classmates. Sessions last 50 minutes to keep concentration sharp, with 10-minute breaks in between so students can step away from their desks and come back refreshed.
Groups stay small too, keeping the student to teacher ratio low so every student gets properly personalised attention.
One of the most common assumptions about online education is that it limits interaction between classmates, so the school has built in a Virtual Playground, a safe digital space where students can connect during breaks, share hobbies and make friends with children and young people from around the world.Pace is adapted to each student rather than the other way around. Those who need extra support in a subject get it without added pressure, while those ready to move faster have their itinerary adjusted so motivation never drops.
Nomad covers every stage of education, from Key Stage 2 primary education from age 6, through Key Stage 3, up to Key Stage 4 and 5 preparation for the Baccalaureate and other official higher qualifications.
Because everything runs online, students keep their teachers, classmates and academic plan wherever their family's lifestyle takes them. A dedicated platform with direct chat keeps communication between students and teachers simple, while progress is tracked through daily participation and project work rather than relying on one-off exams.
Parents also receive quarterly reports followed by individual meetings whenever needed to discuss their child's performance and well-being.
For Montessori British School, education is about more than content. It's about giving students the tools they need for the future, within a humane, respectful and high-quality academic environment.

The Montessori British School in Murcia offers the highest quality education for your children based on the UK curriculum, combined with the world-famous and highly sought-after Montessori methodology of teaching.
What is Montessori?
The Montessori method departs from traditional teaching practices by placing the child’s interests, capacity to choose and natural abilities at the heart of the learning environment, rather than focusing on fitting all students into rigid, one-size-fits-all boxes.It is so popular with parents because it recognises their children as individuals and nurtures their natural curiosity in a collaborative way.
“CHARACTER CANNOT BE TAUGHT, AS IT COMES FROM EXPERIENCE, NOT FROM EXPLANATION.”
– Maria Montessori
