ESM’s famous arts department brings every student the chance to experiment, develop and flourish on the stage. Whether it’s in music, dance or drama, our school calendar is full of events such as our Junior and Secondary Musicals, Festivals of Song and Culture, and the annual ‘Better Together’ Variety Concert, bringing opportunities for students of any age to find and nurture their performing arts talents. |

Language forms a vital pillar of any strong school curriculum and ESM recognises this. Students study in English but also learn Mongolian from the start of Junior School. From Grade 6 a third language is added to the curriculum and students have a choice between Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Korean and Russian. |
Director's Welcome
Mr. Connor Vinnicombe
Welcome to The English School of Mongolia (ESM) in Ulaanbaatar. At our school we are proud to serve a richly diverse community of families from Mongolia and over 30 other nationalities. I believe that in ESM, every child has a place where they can learn and grow. No matter what their background is, or what their individual path to success may be, everyone has a place in our community.
As a British International School, accredited by British Schools Overseas (BSO), we offer a broad range of curricula including IB Programmes and Cambridge IGCSEs, all informed by the English National Curriculum and best practices from the UK to give ESM a distinct British quality and style in the heart of Ulaanbaatar.
ESM is fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of the children and young people in our care, following the BISSC Code of Conduct for safer recruitment, and with a robust Safeguarding Policy. We understand that safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, and we expect everyone working at our school to share this commitment.
We follow the key principle that everyone at ESM should be safe, happy and learning. I invite you to contact us to arrange a school visit, where you can see this in action for yourself. We look forward to welcoming you into our community and working together to support your child's lifelong learning journey.

MISSION STATEMENT
The English School of Mongolia aims at delivering high calibre education while focusing on celebrating cultural and personal values. Supporting students’ educational, moral, social and spiritual needs, ESM creates a learning environment where the strengths of every child can be identified and nurtured.
While striving for academic excellence, ESM creates life-long learners, who are self-confident and well-organised independent thinkers, curious about the world around them. Recognising the community educates global citizens who will be the “change-makers” in Mongolia’s development.

Эрхэм хүндэт эцэг эхчүүд ээ,

Хэрэв таны хүүхэд манай сургуульд суралцдаг эсвэл манай сургуульд элсэн орохоор төлөвлөж байгаа бол хүүхдээ сургуульд нь хүргэх, тосох талаар санаа зовох шаардлагагүй боллоо.
Бид хүүхэд бүрд анхаарал тавьж, аюулгүй, тав тухтай зорчих орчныг бүрдүүлэн, туслах багшийн хамт үйлчилнэ.
Хүүхдийнхээ аюулгүй, тав тухтай зорчих нөхцөлийг бидэнд даатгаарай.
ХҮҮХДИЙН АЮУЛГҮЙ, ТАВ ТУХТАЙ ИРЭЭДҮЙН ТӨЛӨӨ ХАМТДАА!

ESM Lawson Hill IBDP Students at COP17 2026!
Our brilliant International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme Year 1 and Year 2 students visited and returned from an unforgettable experience representing the ESM community at the COP17 climate summit! This wasn't just a field trip; it was a front-row seat to learn about climate conservation,17 UN SDGS, and how this knowledge can be applied in the curriculum and day-to-day activities. Our students spent their day engaging with world policymakers, policy changers, and youth activists from across the globe. They walked away with a profound, firsthand understanding of climate diplomacy, environmental policy, and the power of global collaboration. Few of our student experiences include real-world application; they saw exactly how their IBDP Biology, IB Geography, IB Environmental Systems and Societies, and IBDP Economics lessons translate into global action. Global networking where our students shared perspectives with international youth delegates, proving that young voices from Mongolia belong at the highest tables. Inspiration for action when students returned home with a renewed fire and practical ideas to implement sustainable initiatives right here in our own school community. We are incredibly proud of how articulately and passionately our IBDP cohort represented ESM. The future of environmental stewardship is bright, and it’s led by students like ours! ...

When choosing a school for your child, rather than simply asking, “What kind of school is it?”, take a moment to ask yourself, “Will my child be happy here?”
A child is more likely to develop a genuine love of learning when they feel safe, understood and valued. In an environment where children feel secure and supported, they are more likely to grow in confidence, recognise their strengths and discover their individual talents.✅
Every child is unique. Some are eager to raise their hands and contribute, while others prefer to observe, reflect and develop their understanding in their own time. Some excel in mathematics, others express themselves through the arts, while others thrive through communication, collaboration and building relationships.
What matters most is not comparing children with one another, but giving each child the opportunity to learn, grow and develop at their own pace.🌱🌱
At ESM International School, we recognise and celebrate the individuality of every child. We strive to create an inclusive and nurturing learning environment where every student is encouraged to learn in their own way, develop their potential and have the confidence to shine.
Because we believe that:
Every child has the potential to thrive.
What they need is the right environment, encouragement and opportunities to discover that potential.

Хүүхдээ сургуульд оруулахдаа “Ямар сургууль вэ?” гэж асуухаас илүү “Миний хүүхэд энд аз жаргалтай байх болов уу?” гэж өөрөөсөө нэг асуугаарай.
Учир нь хүүхэд өөрийгөө аюулгүй, ойлгогдож, үнэ цэнтэй гэж мэдэрдэг орчинд л сурах дуртай болдог. Харин сурах дуртай болсон хүүхэд өөртөө итгэлтэй болж, өөрийн авьяас чадвараа нээж эхэлдэг.✅✅
Хүүхэд бүр адилхан биш. Зарим нь шууд гараа өргөдөг бол зарим нь чимээгүй ажиглаж байж ойлгодог. Зарим нь математикаар, зарим нь урлагаар, зарим нь харилцаагаараа гэрэлтдэг.
📌Хамгийн чухал нь тэднийг хооронд нь харьцуулах биш, өөрийнх нь хурдаар өсөж хөгжих боломжийг олгох юм.
ESM International School-д бид хүүхэд бүрийн онцлогийг хүндэтгэж, өөрийнхөөрөө суралцаж, өөрийнхөөрөө гэрэлтэх орчныг бүрдүүлэхийг зорьдог.
Учир нь бид нэг зүйлд итгэдэг.🌱🌱
Хүүхэд бүр гэрэлтэх боломжтой.
Түүнд зөвхөн тэр боломжийг нээж өгөх орчин л хэрэгтэй.
✨ Preschool болон Grade 1-ийн элсэлт үргэлжилж байна.
