Our Mission
UKIM aims to inspire a lifelong love of learning through interactive, inquiry-based opportunities for students, teachers, and parents as a joint education community integrating concepts into the everyday world.
By embracing each student’s diversity and strength, we strive to develop courageous global citizens who help to create a more peaceful world through holistic skill development, community action, and intercultural understanding.
Our History
UKIM was establish by a group of parent educators in 2016. They saw the need for an educational system in Montenegro that better met the needs of students, celebrated their diversity, and developed them holistically.
It started with a vision and has since led to many graduated students feeling better prepared for college, more aware of themselves and ready to take on the world!
UKIM is proud to be rooted in this strong foundation and continues to grow alongside it's faculty and students.
Our Vision
By 2030, we aspire to be a leading educational institution in our region, recognized for shaping compassionate, innovative, and resilient individuals equipped to navigate the challenges of a rapidly evolving world.
As an IB World School, Pearson Edexcel testing centre and an established SAT Testing Center, we will continue to embrace excellence through learner-centered approaches and cutting-edge educational practices. We will prioritize digital transformation, integrating artificial intelligence and emergent technologies to provide personalized, future-focused learning experiences.
We envision a school environment where sustainability, multilingualism, and global citizenship are at the core. By expanding language programs and intercultural exchange opportunities, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of diversity, empowering students to contribute to a more inclusive, connected, and peaceful world.
Our commitment to social transformation and equity will guide us as we develop partnerships with international institutions, engage in impactful community service projects, and nurture the skills for lifelong learning—critical thinking, collaboration, and ethical leadership.
