Overview
This Post Diploma course (for Montessori Diploma holders at the 3-6 age level) is a scientific observation of children using techniques developed by Maria Montessori. Through discussion and practice, students gain a deeper understanding of the Montessori approach and how it is applied in the Children’s House. It is specifically designed for those working in a Montessori 3-6 years environment. After many years of running this course, we are now offering a new format which offers greater accessibility and affordability.
- The Course is open to all Montessori Diploma holders at the 3-6 level – it is not necessary to have an AMI diploma
- The Course is divided into 2 Modules, each with a separate fee – participants can choose to do one or both – or do one and then return later to do the second the following year
- There are 2 optional practice discussion modules (Case Studies) – participants can choose to do one or both of these – or can also decide not to do this part of the course until later
- Graduates who have previously studied on one of our Post Diploma observation courses can choose either of the case study modules as an opportunity to refresh their skills
Over the course of an academic year you will use data collected from your classroom observations and be supported to analyse this in depth and respond to individual children’s developmental needs. Observations must take place in a classroom led by a Montessori 3-6 Diploma holder.
