Why study this course?
We recognise that a training in Montessori pedagogy requires a breadth of understanding and varied set of skills, as well as specific attitudes to children and to ongoing development. Taking students through a process which gives them a grounding in the historical context, philosophical approach and developmental understanding of the Montessori pedagogy, creates a firm foundation from which educators can practice.
