Ray Montessori School 3.42

Ray Montessori School is an English Version School. We are starting from Play Group to Std 1. It's a Montessori Method based school.
The Montessori Method is a way about thinking about who children are. It is a philosophy that respects the unique individuality of each child. Dr. Montessori believed in the worthiness, value and importance of children. Her method does not compare a child to norms or standards that are measured by traditional educational systems. It is founded on the belief that children should be free to succeed and learn without restriction or criticism.


Its application is universal; the results can be successfully achieved in any country and with any racial, cultural or economic group.
It reveals the small child as a lover of work, both of the intellect and of mastery of the body (especially the hand). This work is spontaneously chosen and carried out with profound joy.
Through his work, the child shows spontaneous discipline. This discipline originates within him and is not imposed by external forces. This discipline is real, as contrasted with the artificial discipline of rewards and punishments prevalent under other methods.
It offers the child a maximum spontaneity in choice of physical and mental activity. Nevertheless the child reaches the same or higher levels of scholastic attainment as under traditional systems.
Each child works at his own pace. The quick are not held back nor are the slow pressured. There is much opportunity for group work, and the children spontaneously offer help with work they have mastered to those children who have not.
It enables the trained adult to guide each child individually according to the child’s own interests.
It allows the child to grow in biological independence by respecting his needs and removing undue influence of the adult. It allows the child a large measure of liberty based on respect for the rights of others. This liberty is not permissive license, but forms the basis of real discipline.
It does away with competition as a major motivation for learning. The child competes with himself. It presents endless opportunities for mutual work and help–these joyfully given and received.
The child works from his own free choice. The child chooses his work freely and independently based on his own natural interest rather than by external forces, or choices made by others.
The Montessori Method develops the whole personality of the child. By living as a free member of a real social community, the child is granted the opportunity to gain fundamental social qualities which form the basis of good citizenship, initiative and independence.
