Montessori training plan

“To touch the child is to touch the most delicate and vital point, where everything can be decided and renewed, where everything is full of life, where the secrets of the soul are enclosed, where the education of the man of tomorrow is elaborated.”

-Maria Montessori (1870-1952) 

Group 24-2

The Colegio Montessori's Educational Plan aims to provide students with a comprehensive training in the social, ethical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions, to form a confident, upright individual, who recognizes the value of others, responsible and concerned about their personal improvement and that of those around them. To guide students towards their SELF-DEVELOPMENT, understanding that development is personal, and no one can do it for someone else, “Help me to do it for myself”, as Maria Montessori pointed out. Our Formative Plan is consolidated in an education based on Love, touching, and caring for the hearts of our students so that they become sensitive and aware of the commitment they have with themselves and their environment.

The Educational Plan articulates all the programs and formative actions that are intentionally and directly carried out for the human formation of our students, the fundamental reason for the school, as expressed in its mission …To form autonomous, responsible, creative and ethical people, oriented to the growth of themselves and their environment, with the capacity to establish harmonious relationships and to lead processes of change based on the common good. For this reason, the formative aspect becomes a fundamental and priority strategic area of the school and is based on four fundamental values: AUTONOMY, RESPONSIBILITY, RESPECT AND ORIENTATION TO THE COMMON GOOD. The Plan is structured in five fundamental axes that point to the construction of the Montessori student profile and the consolidation of formative competencies, which are also reinforced from daily life, academic life, and Montessori culture in general. The axes are the following:

Evaluation by formative competencies and elaboration of improvement plans

It is a strategy that is implemented to be worked with all the students of the institution and allow them to continuously and systematically review how their personal growth process is going. The students, supported by an instrument "Matrix of Formative Competencies", carry out self-evaluation processes in their competencies of Autonomy, Responsibility, Respect and Orientation to the Common Good, and receive feedback from significant adults to guide them in this search for their personal growth. In addition, each year they set an improvement plan where they are accompanied by tutors who allow them to find strategies to become better human beings every day.
