Sessions and structure

Days and Times

Sessions run during term time on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 9:00am - 3:00pm. Children may join us for one, two or three days per week. 

Montessori Learning

Children engage in a mix of structured and self directed activities using authentic Montessori learning materials. ​​

Small Groups

We maintain a low child to adult ratio ensuring personalised attention and guidance.

Subjects Covered

Children explore core subjects, maths, language and science, all presented in a hands on, interactive way.

Encouraging independence and co-operation

Following Montessori principles, we support children in developing independence by encouraging them to take responsibility for themselves and their surroundings. Age appropriate tasks include tidying up after activities, organising their belongings, and assisting with group responsibilities. Through teamwork and open communication, we create a collaborative atmosphere where both children and adults feel engaged and valued. 

If conflicts arise, we guide children in resolving them with respect and understanding. We may have a group discussion to help children express their emotions constructively in a supportive, non judgemental space. With gentle guidance from the teacher, children learn to listen, reflect and work towards peaceful resolutions.

The role of the parent

In accordance with the Department For Education's Elective Home Education Guidance, parents are legally responsible for ensuring their child receives a suitable full time education as outlined in section 7 of the Education Act 1996. Our sessions are designed to complement your home education efforts and constitute only a portion of your child's overall learning experience, with attendance limited to a maximum of 18 hours per week.

5

Fees and Registration

We want to ensure that our sessions are the right fit for your child. To begin the process, please contact us with a brief introduction to your family, outlining what you are looking for and how you feel we can support your child's learning journey. It would be helpful for us to know about your child's interests, favourite subjects, and any specific learning needs. 

Once we have received your message we will arrange a phone call to discuss your child's needs in more detail. Following this we will invite your child to attend a free trial session to experience our approach first hand. 

Enrolment Commitment

Once parents have enrolled their child at the start of each half term, we require a commitment for the full half term.

Payment

Fees are due in advance at the beginning of each half term.

Attendance

Children may join us for one, two or three days per week.

What does my child need to bring?

To ensure your child has a comfortable and enjoyable experience at Montessori Home School Hub, please provide the following items:

Healthy snack and packed lunch

We encourage nutritious and balanced meals to support concentration and energy levels.

Water bottle

Staying hydrated is important throughout the day.

Indoor slippers

Children wear slippers inside to create a calm and comfortable environment.

Weather appropriate clothing 

We take outdoor breaks in all seasons, visiting Queens Park or Tarner Park, both are just a five minute walk away.

Exploration essentials
