In October 1990, the Montessori Education Trust, a non-profit, charitable trust, was formed by a group of committed parents to establish a diverse Montessori school community for children up to the age of 12, provide financial assistance and support Montessori teacher training. By September 1991 Montessori Academy opened its doors to 72 children and the success of our academic programme saw our student body grow in leaps and bounds. By 1997 we reached maximum capacity of 135 children.
In September 2001, the Montessori International Academy was relocated to Devonshire and introduced a brand new IB Middle Years Programme based on the work of the International Baccalaureate Organisation. A new name Somersfield Academy and logo were developed to reflect the school’s identity, philosophy and location and to promote the school’s newly expanded role in Bermuda’s academic community.
Built on the grounds of the former Nationals Field on land first owned by the Somers Company, the school’s new name also connects it to the Island itself, which was originally known as the Somers Isles. The words and visual marks capture the essence of our Montessori and Middle Years Programmes, maintaining continuity with the past and creating a unique and positive identity for the school.

When we had a teacher decide to take another job in mid-July, we were left with few options. Historically, it was a tough position to fill. Within 24 hours of posting the position on Schrole, we were able to offer a contract to a more-qualified educator.
