The Montessori Registered renewal framework

A sustainable Montessori Quality programme focused on self-assessment as a diagnostic tool, with an integrated systems view for continuous improvement in any Montessori setting.

This programme co-exists with government auditing processes. It does not duplicate them — it raises the point of difference schools and early childhood providers offer through Montessori Authentic Practice Standards.

  • Clarify authenticity of practice with a guided Montessori framework
  • Use Montessori Standards and Guidelines as measurable elements for improvement
  • Address National Quality Standards through a Montessori lens
  • Support continuous improvement across governance, leadership and delivery
