The Modern Montessori School (MMS) is a private school in Amman, Jordan founded by Randa Hasan. It caters for students from 3–18 years old, and is considered one of the best schools in Jordan affiliated with International Baccalaureate [1] and accredited by the International Centre for Montessori Education (ICME)[2]. It was established in 1985 and is built on a 24,000 m2 piece of land. It is designed to meet international standards in school requirements. It offers a Montessori Early Childhood Education Programme from Nursery 1 to KG2; bilingual English/Arabic curriculum for grades 1-8; a specially formulated pre-IB Bridge Years (BYP) curriculum for grades 9 + 10; and IB curriculum for grades 11 + 12.

The Modern Montessori School is dedicated to advancing the development and education of children from age three through to high school. It offers a low pupil/teacher ratio, a well-qualified professional faculty and a balanced curriculum, which emphasizes academic preparation in the main subjects, such as mathematics, languages, sciences and social sciences. In addition, visual arts, performing arts, music, physical education and computer literacy play an integrated role in the curriculum. The school provides a nurturing environment for the personal and intellectual development of each child. It encourages a high level of co-operative planning, teaching and evaluation, designed to produce success in advancing the learning process of the students. Most of the school's graduates continue their education in universities in the UK, Canada, USA, Lebanon or Jordan. The school also has a large and active Learning Support Department, dedicated to providing assistance for students with special needs.

Its students and administration hold an annual Model Arab League conference ("AMAL")
