About the School

Maple Bloom has a distinguished 13-year history, founded by an experienced UK educator who previously operated one of Solihulls top-rated pre-schools. Building on this reputation for excellence and strong parental trust, Maple Bloom opened its first pre-school campus in Tanzania in 2020.

Located in Masaki, Dar es Salaam, the purpose-built Maple Bloom Elementary campus delivers a British-style education that is internationally recognised. As a Pearson Edexcel approved centre, the school implements the International Primary Curriculum (IPC), the International Middle Years Curriculum (IMYC), and a forward-thinking approach that values creativity, innovation, and practical learning.

Small class sizes, strong pastoral support, and well-resourced learning spaces underpin Maple Blooms commitment to high-quality, child-centred education.
