​The Montessori method was developed by the Italian physician and researcher, Maria Montessori, based on her many years working with small children.
​
The philosophy focuses on the immense capacity of children being able to absorb information when given the freedom and independence to learn at their own pace.
​
What makes the Montessori approach different, and what makes it work so well is that it is based on this deep understanding of the way children learn; through choosing, trying and doing themselves.
​
When children are given access to specially developed materials in a prepared environment and the close observation and guidance of a passionate teacher, this leads to an enormously powerful, confidence-building to learning.
