    Curriculum pace

    Student-paced
    The main curriculum pace is non-standardized and is HIGHLY responsive to the pacing of individual students, (via differentiated instruction, differentiated assessment, etc). In theory, some students outpace the default/normalized curriculum, while others spend periods "behind schedule" if they need the extra time.
    Standard-enriched
    Broadly-speaking, the main curriculum -- like that of most schools -- paces the provincially-outlined one. This pace is steady and set by the teachers and school. The curriculum might still be enriched in various ways: covering topics more in-depth and with more vigor than the provincial one, or covering a broader selection of topics.

    Academic culture

    Supportive
    A school with a “supportive” academic culture focuses more on process than short-term outcomes: academic performance is a welcomed side-benefit, but not the driving focus. This does not mean the school lacks standards, or has low expectations for its students: a school can have a supportive academic culture and still light the fire of ambition in its students. It does mean, however, the school provides a less intensive culture than schools with a “rigorous” academic classification, and is focused more simply on instilling a love of learning and life-long curiosity.

    Preschool/K curriculum

    Montessori
    Montessori programs aimed at preschool and Kindergarten- aged children allow young learners to choose which “tasks” or activities interest them. These tasks centre around special Montessori puzzles -- the essential features of these puzzles being they contain a “right answer” and allow for self-correction. A strong emphasis is therefore placed on learning being concrete and rooted in practical experience, along with children developing a sense of self-sufficiency and confidence. Specially trained teachers act as guides, introducing children to progressively more difficult materials when appropriate. A Montessori classroom is typically very calm and orderly, with children working alone or, sometimes, in small groups.

    If you want to learn more about Montessori education, check out our comprehensive guide. You can also check out our guide to Montessori preschools, elementary schools, middle schools, and high schools.
    Academic
    Academic-based preschools and Kindergartens are the most structured of the different types, and have a strong emphasis on math and reading readiness skills. These programs aim to expose children to what early-elementary school is like. While time is still allotted to free play, much of the day is built around explicit lessons guided by the teacher. Classrooms often resemble play-based ones (with different stations set up around the room), but at an Academic program the teacher leads students through the stations directly, and ties these activities to a whole-class lesson or theme.

    Our Take

    Our Take

    WESTSIDE MONTESSORI SCHOOL

    There are various aspects to the Montessori model of instruction, though Westside nicely addresses not only what Montessori is, but also what it can mean in the longer-term. Maria Montessori didn’t think small—her classrooms, she felt, could be a doorway to many things, including world peace. That’s a very big thought of course, but within it is that idea of the longer-term, the belief that education is about the future of a society through addressing the future of each child. At Westside, that’s very much the intention: to give young students the basis for success in their education, and ultimately, success in life. The vibrancy of the surrounding Kensington Market community finds its way, very happily, into the classroom as well. Core literacy and numeracy are important, though there is also an attention to esteem, executive functioning, and social interaction. Rightly, families look to Westside, often principally, because of the program’s attention to those foundations.

    ST. GEORGE'S SCHOOL OF MONTREAL

    St. George's was founded in 1930 by a group of parents who wanted something different for their children, namely an education that was less based in rote learning and more based in experience and respect for the individual learners. Then, as now, the students didn't wear uniforms, and lessons were learned experientially, through hands-on lived experience. Students take part in projects and programs with students throughout the school, not only their immediate age mates. Students are encouraged to follow the paths of their curiosity, and then given the latitude and the resources in order to do so. That said, there is a structure, too, and the academic program has, throughout the life of the school, proved itself through real, observable results.

  • SCHOOL LEADERSHIP

    Message from school leadership

    Message from school leadership

    WESTSIDE MONTESSORI SCHOOL

    Children present us with opportunities to think about the world in new and fascinating ways. I am blessed to share my days with our Westside students and my evenings with my own child, who is three. A few months ago, when explaining to my son Wyatt that I work at his school and we may see each other from time to time, he began with the “Why? Why?” that educators and parents are extremely familiar with. He wanted to know why I work at his school, “Because I like to help children and teachers.” “Why?” “Because I love children.” “Why?” Up until this moment, the conversation had been easy, really easy. This was a huge question and he was awaiting my response, “I love children because within each child lies an opportunity for a better world”.

    Maria Montessori, who lived through two world wars, believed that through children, we can achieve world peace, and I quote,  “Establishing lasting peace is the work of education; all politics can do is keep us out of war.” Mahatma Gandhi met Maria Montessori in 1931, and she invited him to speak to a group of Montessori teacher trainees. He said, “If we are to create peace in our world, we must begin with our children.”

    They are right, if peace doesn’t begin with the children, it doesn’t begin at all. Spending time with these beautiful souls reminds me on a daily basis that anything is possible and they will lead us there. We must give them the opportunity, trust and confidence to make it happen. We must have faith in their development and know that they will arrive. 

    I invite you to set up a time to come to Westside Montessori School and learn more about our programs and the independent, motivated and compassionate students we are guiding. 

    ST. GEORGE'S SCHOOL OF MONTREAL

    Every school aspires to provide the knowledge and skills that are required to transform their students into accomplished and confident adults. To a great extent, this transformation is accomplished by the timely and caring interventions of their teachers. 
    At St. George’s, we believe that our programs provide appropriate challenges and engagement, even as students begin their first years of learning. To fulfill this promise, we offer differentiated approaches and programs in all core disciplines. As our students mature and gain confidence, our curriculum offers additional challenges through enriched, accelerated, and ‘Advanced Placement’ classes. Students are offered a rich assortment of options so that they may experience new and exciting domains of development in areas such as Marine Biology, Engineering, Psychology and Media, as well as the opportunity to pursue co-curricular options such as Biomimicry, Jazz Band, Glee, Stage Crew, Robotics and Debating.

    At St. George’s, we believe that education is best served by establishing a deep and authentic relationship with each student, as a confirmation of our unwavering belief in each child’s unique passions and aspirations. We see our role as enablers, unleashing the amazing talents that lie within each child. To provide a fertile terrain for personal and academic growth,  this process requires trust and validation from peers and adults.

    We believe that teaching is an intuitive art that is further enhanced through our greater understanding of each learner’s character, and the development of their self-awareness, their empathy for others, their perseverance and their sense of optimism- all of which provide the foundation for an enriching life. At St. George’s, we measure our success by the degree of our students’ aspirations to lead a fulfilled life.

    We believe that education is a real-time experience and that it happens best through real-life inquiries and projects where each student becomes an agent for change, both locally and amongst extended communities, and where the exploration of one’s true self becomes a profound and rewarding process. We also believe that as our students discover themselves, and as they explore the world around them, their ability to make sense, to create, to self-regulate and to become solid life-long learners and transformation leaders will naturally follow. 

    Based on the child-centered approach of John Dewey, St. George’s School of Montreal was founded in 1930 by an enlightened group of progressive parents and educators from Sir George Williams (Concordia) and McGill Universities.  Our commitment to the individual growth and development of each child continues to the present day. We are always pleased to welcome prospective parents who wish to learn more as to how our unique, time-tested approach supports each child on a personal and academic level.
