Edinburgh Montessori Arts School (EMAS) is a trailblazing independent school offering a fully integrated Montessori education for children aged 1–18. Rooted in respect for the whole child and a commitment to sustainability, creativity, and community, EMAS is uniquely positioned as the only school in Scotland with a dedicated Montessori Micro-Farm School for adolescents.

Our pioneering adolescent programme takes learning beyond the classroom and into the real world—onto the land, into the community, and through purposeful work. Set on a thriving micro-farm, our Teens Hub blends academic learning, ecological literacy, and enterprise with meaningful contribution and independence. Through hands-on science, technology, arts, and practical life projects, students not only meet national curriculum outcomes but also cultivate confidence, collaboration, and leadership.

EMAS offers a dynamic, values-driven learning environment where young people are empowered to become thoughtful, capable changemakers.
