3-6 Diploma Course
Academic Year Format
The 3-6 Academic Year Diploma Course focuses on Montessori pedagogy and practices for children from 3 to 6 years of age, the characteristics and needs expressed during this stage of development, and the means available to assist the child’s work of self-construction. The teacher is trained to act as a vital link between children and their surroundings; all children explore freely at their own pace.
