Welcome

A healthy safe environment in the school can facilitate all children's needs, by developing necessary skills to achieve their social and behavioural milestones. Portobello Montessori School offers this by taking turns, sharing, politeness, and making choices.
We encourage self-discipline in the child by:
Praising the behaviour rather than the child. Encouraging the child's age and stage of development. Using play and games with rules to help the children learn and understand boundaries. Avoiding isolation and humiliation of the children. Being consistent. Clarifying expectations and rules of behaviour. Staff use positive methods of discipline, which encourage self-control, self-discipline, self-direction, self-esteem and co-operation.
