Founded by Maria Montessori in the early 1900's, the Montessori Method has become an internationally recognised, and incredibly successful, alternative teaching method. Maria Montessori approached learning through the eyes of the child and developed a 'child lead' approach predominately through the freedom of movement and play. Our centres have embraced this child lead approach and provide the children with a prepared environment and fully qualified 'directresses' to guide the child through their vital early years.
