Montessori Education


The philosophical foundation of the Montessori approach is based on the premise that education should be an aid to life. In order to develop their physical, intellectual and spiritual powers to the fullest, children must have the freedom to achieve this through order and self-discipline. Dr. Montessori realized that the only valid impulse to learning is the self-motivation of the child.

Respect for a child’s personality and trust in their inner potentialities are prerequisite to the foundation of an adequate educational alliance, between parent and teacher, parent and child and between teacher and student.



Our aim is to assist in the development of each child’s innate potential, by creating a school environment in which the child can do and think for him/herself. Patterns of concentration, focus, and thoroughness established in early childhood produce a confident, competent learner in later years. Montessori teaches children to observe, to think, to judge and provides a framework in which intellectual and social discipline go hand in hand.

Montessori education concerns itself with creating an environment, especially suited to the un-deviated development of the child’s psychic, physical, social, moral and intellectual potential qualities. Dr. Maria Montessori drew on the scientific study of how children learn and her insights are reflected in their similarity to educational principles generated by current neuro-psychological research
