Montessori Primary School For 6-12 Year Olds
|
In March 2023, we opened our Montessori primary school providing education for children aged 6-12.
We are registered with Independent Schools Scotland and were inspected by HMI and Education Scotland in December 2023, receiving a grade of Very Good in the areas of Learning, Teaching and Assessment ; and Curriculum. You can access their finding here:- https://education.gov.scot/inspection-and-review/find-an-inspection-report/find-an-inspection-report/details?id=82925 Inspired by the methodology and values of Maria Montessori, the children are guided through the Montessori curriculum by a highly skilled and experienced Montessori teacher and their assistant. Children have the opportunity to explore inspiring tangible Montessori materials in a peaceful classroom setting, giving them the chance to ask questions, make connections, problem solve and develop important critical thinking skills. The Montessori method is respected globally for promoting individually paced learning, fostering independence and encouraging empathy and a joy in lifelong learning. Our timetable integrates outdoor and sustainable art education, Spanish language learning and physical exercise, as well as nature school activities. All sessions are facilitated by specialist educators and approached in a cross-curriculum manner.

We are so happy to have successfully expanded our provision of Montessori education.
For some time, we had hoped to be able to continue offering our families an outstanding Montessori education beyond the early years and so in response to demand, and the bringing together of a brilliant team of educators, we made this happen. https://www.guidepostmontessori.com/blog/montessori-elementary-vs-traditional-elementary |
