| Teaching approach of the school |
Recognizing the uniqueness of each student, our education professionals provide individualized support and tailor instruction to each child’s strengths and abilities. Our classrooms offer a wide range of independent activities, primarily using Montessori materials, allowing each student to choose and develop their skills at their own pace. The school offers three spacious classrooms, with direct access to restrooms for the youngest children, a multipurpose room/cafeteria, and a 200 m² courtyard equipped with raised garden beds and play areas. To also foster the social skills necessary for integration into a learning community, students work in small class groups. This structure enables them to progress at their speed while benefiting from a collaborative learning environment. |
