Philosophy & Objectives
Philosophy
Dr. Montessori developed what she called the Prepared Environment, which already possesses a certain order and allowed children to learn at their own speed and according to their capabilities in a non-competitive atmosphere. “Never let children risk failure until they have a reasonable chance of success”. The Montessori Method introduces children to the joy of learning at an early age and provides a framework in which intellectual and social discipline go hand-in-hand.
