Overview
This programme serves to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the Montessori approach to the education and care of children in early and middle childhood. Students are supported to develop the requisite knowledge(s), values and competencies to work effectively in a range of education and care settings, in line with current legislation, standards and quality frameworks.
The aim of professional practice placement (years 2 and 3) is to provide students with the opportunity to experience various education and care settings, thus facilitating the professional growth, development and training of the student over the duration of this programme of study. Learning situations within the working environment facilitate the student to integrate theory and practice and develop competence in practice skills.
