About the Montessori Curriculum
The Montessori method, developed by Dr. Maria Montessori in the early 1900s, is an educational philosophy centered on self-directed learning, hands-on exploration, and collaborative play. Montessori schools create carefully prepared environments where children choose their activities, learn at their own pace, and develop independence from an early age. With over 20,000 Montessori schools worldwide, this approach has proven particularly effective for early childhood and elementary education.
