Media - Montessori Academy of London

Our school has been London’s leader in Montessori education for more than 50 years. Established in 1968, a lot has changed since then: the location, the number of students we serve – even the name of the school. But our commitment to Dr. Maria Montessori’s vision of education has not.

In fact, over the years, Montessori Academy of London has become a pre-eminent Montessori school – renowned in Canada and around the world for the exceptional quality of our Montessori program.

We were the first Montessori school in Canada to offer an Adolescent program (Grades 7 & 8), and one of the first to receive accreditation by the Canadian Council of Montessori Administrators (CCMA).

Montessori Academy offers something unique and valuable to the London community: Education choice. Specifically, high-quality, accredited Montessori education that puts the needs of the child first. Education that teaches children the value of being confident, compassionate and engaged citizens. Education that prepares children for life.

Because we are committed to providing the families in London education choice, we are a board-governed registered charity (Charitable Registration #1052 29124 RR0001) dedicated to providing quality alternative education in the area. Our volunteer board includes current parents, alumni students and families, and community members.

VISION & MISSION

Our vision is a community of confident, compassionate and engaged citizens who think globally, act responsibly and collaborate successfully to create a humane world.

The trinomial cube is a piece of Montessori material presented to children from pre-school through Junior High (Grades 7 & 8). Like our school, it’s the sum of the parts that’s important.
The cube helps younger students develop concentration, order, coordination and a visual and tactile sense of shape. For older students, it represents the algebraic concepts involved in trinomial theorem.

Our mission is to provide a world-class Montessori education that promotes academic excellence and prepares children and young adults to engage the world as active citizens and successful leaders.
