Description de l'entreprise

"Montessori Education" is developing a network of establishments applying the Montessori pedagogy, sensitive to Ecology and Sustainable Development, in an environment open to international and inclusive education.  "Montessori Education" was founded by a passionate and experienced team: Stéphane Le Viet, Maxime Faguer and Mia Mazzantini.

After 11 years of existence of the École Montessori Internationale - Jardin du Luxembourg in Paris 5e, we are launching the project of opening a new Ecole Montessori Internationale which will welcome children from 2 to 6 years old. Located at 43 rue Maurice Ripoche (75014), the premises have a private access on the street and have a surface of 200m² which promises a calm and very luminous environment thanks to a glass roof. It is 150m from the Square de l'Aspirant Dunand. 

The Ecole Montessori Internationale - Paris 14e will welcome children in two different classes: the "Infant Community" and the "Children's House".  The school is committed to learning the knowledge and skills expected at the end of the kindergarten cycle by the French Ministry of Education and adds to the 5 areas of learning defined by the EN, ecological awareness, work on socio-emotional skills and a daily immersion in a 100% bilingual environment (French/English).

The harmonious development of the child, his blossoming, his well-being and the acquisition of knowledge are our priorities, as well as listening to and observing his needs, a personalized follow-up and the benevolent accompaniment of the families and the teaching teams in a common educational project.
