Montessori schools

Montessori schools provide a different type of education. Traditional schools emphasise

competition, tests and qualifications. In traditional schools, the children sit down all day and
listen to the teacher, who stands at the front of the class. Strong discipline is important so
that children do what the teacher says. In Montessori schools, the emphasis is different.
Here, teachers believe that young children are naturally interested in the world around them.
They are excited about learning. Teachers must, therefore, pay attention to their students'
interests.

Students can show the teacher what and how they want to learn. It is a child-centred
approach to teaching that is very unusual in our modern industrial society. It is possible for
Montessori teachers to listen to individual students because class sizes in Montessori
schools are usually small. This is not possible in most traditional schools. The Montessori
classes also include children of different ages, so that younger children can learn from older
children, as well as from the teacher.

Montessori teachers believe that learning should happen through all five senses – through
tasting, touching, smelling, hearing and seeing. They also believe that children learn better
when they are actively doing something, not only when they are watching, reading or

listening. For example, if a teacher is teaching his students about plants, he can teach them
by bringing plants and seeds into the classroom, or by inviting the students to plant
something in the school's garden. The schools also want their students to learn to be
independent, so even very young children are taught practical life skills, including cooking
and meal preparation, gardening, and caring for clothes, shoes and toys. Traditional subjects
are taught too, but they are not separated from other parts of life.

The Montessori school system was invented by Dr Maria Montessori in the 1900s to educate
poor children in Italy, her native country. She was a scientist and an innovator. For a woman
born in 1870, her achievement is incredible. There are more than 5,000 Montessori schools
in the United States, and approximately 600 in the United Kingdom. Research studies show
that Montessori students learn academic, social and emotional skills that are very useful for
later life. Psychologists in the US report that Montessori students get higher grades in
spelling and maths tests than students from traditional schools. Montessori schools show
that non-traditional schooling can work too.

Dr. Maria Montessori was born in 1870.
