Bournemouth Montessori Centre

Bournemouth Montessori Centre is one of the foremost providers of Montessori education in the World and one of the only accredited training providers in the U.K. The Bournemouth Montessori Centre provides a fully rounded college-based course leading to a Montessori Diploma or Certificate in the Montessori teacher training.

Established in 1992, and based in the beautiful seaside town of Bournemouth, the Bournemouth Montessori Centre provides an unrivalled learning experience for students.

The aim of The Bournemouth Montessori Centre is to support students in becoming a trained professional Montessori teacher (to teach children 2 – 6 years) with a deep insight into the Montessori Method of education and its practice. We believe that training provides a unique and deeply enriching experience.

The Montessori Method, an internationally recognised educational system, was developed by Dr Maria Montessori through a lifetime of observing and working with children. Her philosophy is recognised throughout the World and is highly respected.

Our courses have been carefully designed and are taught in small and supportive groups. Highly experienced tutors guide students in achieving excellent standards. We run full and part time Montessori teacher training courses over one academic year resulting in either a Montessori Diploma (level 4 qualification) or a Montessori Certificate (level 3 qualification). There is a balance between theory and practice as Dr Maria Montessori required.

There is a high demand for B.M.C graduates and our alumni have found jobs with children throughout the U.K and the World – some working in such far-flung destinations as Hong Kong and South America. Many of our students have taken the next step and opened successful Montessori nursery schools of their own.

A Montessori qualification from the Bournemouth Montessori Centre opens up a world of opportunities that will last you a life time.

A graduate says of her Montessori college course at B.M.C. "It was the most rewarding and enriching year of my life. Since graduating from the Bournemouth Montessori Centre my qualification has allowed me to manage a Montessori accredited nursery and has enabled me to balance a satisfying career and family life".

We have welcomed students of all ages, many nationalities and varying academic backgrounds...so what are you waiting for?
