MONTESSORI ACCREDITATION

Montessori Education Accreditation Board (MEAB)

MEAB was introduced in 2008 by the Montessori St. Nicholas charity. The scheme was developed with the assistance of the British Accreditation Council and Independent Schools Inspectorate.

The accreditation process looks at how a setting delivers Montessori principles through its daily practice. There are many benefits of MEAB accreditation for Montessori schools and for their teachers, prospective parents and of course the children who attend.

What does MEAB accreditation mean?

FOR PARENTS:

The knowledge that an accredited school:

• Fulfils the criteria of high quality Montessori provision
• Is expected to meet national regulatory standards
• Demonstrates effective links with parents

FOR CHILDREN:

Accreditation is awarded to schools that:

• Trust and respect a child’s need to learn through freedom of choice
• Have a prepared learning environment that supports a child’s natural path of development
• Acknowledge each child’s individuality within the context of their own family
