St Monica primary school is firmly built on the Montessori philosophy, now widely recognised internationally as helping to educate children in line with the highest modern standards and giving them a life-long love for learning.
The Montessori approach to education was first developed by Italy’s first female doctor, Maria Montessori, a century ago, based on her own direct observations of children. The approach is child-centered and based on a profound understanding of what each child is truly capable of; which in turn promotes enthusiasm and joy in learning and enables children to realise their full potential. St. Monica school was one of the pioneers of the Montessori approach to education in Nigeria offering opportunities for development of the intellectual capabilities and socio-cultural skillls of our pupils.
We admit children all year round across all levels.
