Introduction
You’ll aspire to further your knowledge in the Montessori pedagogy and lead the way in the first-ever Montessori Master's degree in the UK. You’ll advance your knowledge of young children’s learning and develop your early years of Montessori practice and professionalism. Through the exploration of areas of Montessori in early childhood education and care you’ll enhance your research skills and be one of the first Montessorians to hold a Montessori Master's degree.
You’ll be supported by academics who are also qualified Montessori practitioners offering you a knowledgeable and reflective teaching team. Deepen your knowledge of the three elements of the Montessori triangle: the child; the environment and the teacher. You’ll explore and analyse theories of cosmic education, social justice and the child as an agent for change.
We’ll give you an opportunity to flourish as an active learner, prepared to lead the practice and learning at a Master's level.
You’ll be assessed via coursework only. This will take the form of patchwork text, presentations, a reflective journal, a research workbook and written reports.
