Choosing The Right Montessori School

 It all started with the goal of Maria Montessori to build the kind of an educational system that is “child centred" and not, teacher-directed. There is a huge difference between the two concepts. The teacher-directed educational system has been going on for decades. It used to be known as the only efficient educational system until Maria Montessori’s dream came in. Her dream was to make the educational system, at least of the pre-level, "Child Centred".

In a Child Centred educational system, the teacher follows the child, not the vice-versa. One part of it is to keep a few options of activities in front of the children, explain it to them by performing it yourself and then letting them choose which option of activity do they want to choose. This way, the child's decision- making power becomes independent and free of manipulation of the surroundings. A child, who is of tender age, will only choose for what interests him/ her. If this value is inculcated in your children's lives, it will teach them independence, how to be responsible and how to take the initiative.

A few judgements

Finding the right Montessori School, especially in Eastcote, is not easy as not every Montessori School in Eastcote will follow the exact same principle that guides the school's name. A lot of detailed judging goes into choosing the right Montessori school for your child. 

1. Thefirst and foremost thing- The educational system in a Montessori schoolis for the teachers to observe each and every child, not only in the classroom but outdoors as well. One single action of a child if gone unnoticed can go against the whole principle of the Montessori Educational System.

We, at the Rise Montessori Nursery, have a whole team of dedicated and determined teachers and staff who look out for each and every child in and out of the classroom. We observe, understand and take action. At our nursery, the good will be rewarded, and the bad will be turned into good by emotional and psychological understanding. 

2. Thesecond thing- to make sure about while choosing the right Montessori School in Eastcote for your child is the experience and the abilities of the teachers and the helpers in the school.  A teacher in a Montessori School does not have to be very experienced. He/ she should have the skills of deep observation, understanding, communication and mostly, patience.

We, at the Rise Montessori Nursery, are staffed with the kind of teachers that are able to guide the child in the direction of where his/her interests go and inscribe the values of independence and responsibility in them through giving them the freedom to realize it on their own by performing the activities they chose to do themselves. 

3. The third thing- to make sure about while choosing the right Montessori schoolfor your child is the kind of activities that they hold in the school and what kind of equipment do they use to teach your children. For example, to teach writing, these schools have children use sandpaper letters created by cutting alphabets out of sandpaper and placing them in wooden blocks instead of plastic blocks.

We, at the Rise Montessori Nursery, a Montessori School in Pinner, emphasize and assure on enacting on all of these points and more with utmost efficiency and affectivity.
