Further information
We recommend the following websites and books for up to date information regarding Montessori research, outcomes and a great deal of other interesting work. New research is always coming out, and many more useful resources are available so do get in touch if you would like any further information.
We are aware that students are spending more time online as they access work and communicate with their teachers and friends. It is therefore important that we continue to share safety messages to keep our children safe.
Here are some useful packs you might want to look at: Supporting parents with online working at home

Each fortnight, we will be releasing new home activity packs with simple 15 minute activities you can do with your child to support their online safety at a time when they will be spending more time online at home"
