A Foundation Built On Excellence
At UC, the Montessori philosophy and method of teaching fosters a loving, independent environment tailored to the individual needs and development of each student.
The Montessori approach is a student-centred and student-directed teaching method, offered within a prepared environment, which fosters exploration, experimentation, creativity, and respect. Our Montessori Casa programme builds on the foundation of the Montessori Method with well-received enhancements and additional learning opportunities for our students in music, science, visual and dramatic arts, and more.
We are very proud of the strong reputation of our Casa programme which has, for many years, provided children with a strong foundation in academic and life skills all within family-like and supportive classroom environments.
When comparing UC with other schools, either public or private, parents may ask themselves what is the Montessori Casa programme difference?
