Things that I like from this school are :
-location---among private houses,small road, safe and quiet
-there is 1 on 1 time for the teacher to really see the progress of each child
-small ratio. in my son's class : 2 permanent teachers for 13 kids. they have some attachment teachers too.
-the teachers are very approachable.
-no physical punishment, even a small snap on the palm.
This school is focusing more on academically learning. Means if you are looking for school with more music, art, dancing time, this school is not for your child.
Pupils in N2 are able to read/spell/write 4-5 letter words with blend.
Having said that, pupils have free time to work on the materials on their own.
You may want to visit the school personally, then you will feel it if it is the right school for your child or not.
(Let me know if you need any contact person or I can ask the school about the open house for this year.)
I have visited other montessori, it is pretty good, except the fact that they have outdoor activities in the balcony in 2nd floor. We would have not known it if we did not visit the school!
btw, how old is your child? if she/he is already 4 years old (N2 age), your child still has to join N1 first to learn the basic montessori materials. But rest assured, your child will still graduate together with his/her peers accordingly.
Have you visited Shaw's House and Pat's School? They are nearby too.
It all depends on what your priorities are...
