Our Leaders

IMS-19

I became a teacher to make a positive difference for every child. As head teacher, I place this belief at the heart of our school.

Every child is unique and I am determined that we treat each child as an individual. Being a school is about more than the adding up and writing stories, it’s about developing life skills and preparing for the next stage in our life. I am proud of the way we develop our pupils in all aspects of their education, well-being and the success they have when they move to the next level of education.

Justine Antoniou

Head of Early Years and Kindergarten

At IMS, we prepare students for a global future with infinite possibilities. We offer a high-quality education, in a stimulating, supportive environment that helps the students to achieve excellence, to reach their full potential and to combine school experiences with real life. Through a holistic, student-centered, and inquiry-based approach, our students develop concepts, skills and life attitudes that enable them to become active, creative and responsible members of the local and international community. We aspire our students to be compassionate and responsible global citizens, equipped with skills for lifelong learning that enable them to take action to create a just and sustainable world.

Elena Demertzi

Head of Primary School PYP coordinator 

At International Metropolitan School, we believe education is about guiding minds and illuminating futures. The IB Middle Years Programme at IMS empowers students to think critically, embrace challenges, and grow into independent, lifelong learners who make a positive impact on the world. 

With extensive experience as an IB educator in international schools abroad, I have seen firsthand how the MYP empowers students to take ownership of their learning, preparing them not just for academic success, but for life beyond the classroom. At IMS, we are committed to nurturing inquiring, knowledgeable, and caring individuals who will shape the future with confidence, creativity, and compassion. 

Socrates Rigopoulos 

IB MYP Coordinator

The International Metropolitan School is a modern and dynamically growing primary school that combines educational expertise with the latest pedagogical approaches, all within a warm, safe, and family-oriented environment.

We are a well-organized and people-centered school that, guided by universal human values, is dedicated to the holistic education and development of every child. We promote respect for diversity, foster noble competition, joy, and creativity, and provide fertile ground for each student’s personal growth.

Fully attuned to the demands of today’s society, our school constantly evolves and adapts—because we know the world our children are growing up in is ever-changing. We aim to equip our students with the skills, abilities, and values they need to succeed and flourish in a borderless world.

At the same time, we place strong emphasis on building a close, meaningful partnership with each student’s family—whom we consider essential allies in our shared educational mission.
