Our Intent, Implementation and Impact
Our mission is to implement the philosophy, practices and curriculum of Maria Montessori and her method of education, alongside the Early Years Foundation Stage.
We aim to provide a safe, secure and happy environment. In this environment your child can be guided through the Montessori education system by adults with a full understanding of the Montessori method and the Early Years. We will help your child to find their own potential and independence on their journey of self-discovery and aid them in becoming a balanced, well-mannered and confident individual.
We have prepared a Montessori environment that is calm, engaging and responsive to each individual child at all stages of development, where children will learn through meaningful play.
