Our Philosophy

The principle and aim of our school is to provide a serene and happy environment where the child feels at home, where their abilities, creativity and skills are encouraged, where good social skills and a joy for learning are introduced in a fun way without any pressure, thus to develop the child self-confidence, independence and self-esteem. We follow the Montessori method combined with the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum.

The Montessori Method

In 1907, Dr Maria Montessori (1870-1952), Italy’s first female doctor, founded Montessori education. Montessori believed that children can teach themselves in a ‘prepared environment’with self-correcting apparatus for learning. In prepared environments, children are active explorers of their environment, learn at their own pace and choose a variety of materials and activities that emphasize learning through the senses with a hands-on approach. 

The Montessori approach is a child-centred one that operates on several defining principles. The goal of a Montessori classroom is to develop the whole child, which includes physical, social, emotional and cognitive abilities. The job of the teacher is to follow the child and open each child’s full potential and individuality.
