Our Credo
(With due apologies to John Dewey)
We believe that a hundred year old idea that transformed the world's perception
of child development and education holds the greatest promise for realizing the
potentialities of India's children.
We believe that the Montessori principles must be assimilated and absorbed into
the national educational curriculum to empower our children and equip them for the
future.
We believe that spreading awareness of the pedagogical principles of Montessori
approach is crucial to usher in a Montessori revolution in India.
We believe that greater visibility of Montessori schools and institutions is necessary
for widening the reach of Montessori in India.
We believe that the internet is an important enabler for widening awareness, understanding
and ultimately acceptance of Montessori pedagogy in India.
