Our school’s strong reputation is based on our proud track record for excellence. Our approach is based upon the educational philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori.

At Montessori Pathways we offer a lovely classroom setting where children work in an atmosphere of freedom and responsibility.

The Montessori materials provide a sound academic base. They attract your child’s interest and support your child’s learning. An active, hands-on approach enables your child to discover the world.
