In collaboration with research organisation HundrED, Montessori Global Education is conducting a global project – the Child-Centred Learning Spotlight – to gather and share examples of innovative child-centred learning across the world.
This Spotlight project will raise awareness about child-centred practice, highlight the Montessori philosophy’s relevance to contemporary challenges, and further the expansion of access to high-quality education for all children. Ultimately, the innovations selected by the Spotlight’s expert Advisory Board will amplify examples of high-quality, evidence-backed, scalable innovations that can support inclusive and holistic education.
Please note that the call for innovations and submissions period has now closed. Innovations will be reviewed by the Advisory Board during January 2025, and the final report will be published in late Spring/early Summer. Please check back here for regular updates.
Why did applicants submit their innovations?
- Recognition: The recognition of being selected will provide public, third-party validation from an independent panel of international education innovation experts. The application process itself will support you in reflecting on your work, outcomes, and future directions – encouraging a deeper understanding of your work.
- Visibility: Selected submissions will be shared internationally via HundrED and Montessori Global Education’s networks.
- Connections: Participation in the events organised for selected innovators will facilitate networking with others interested in educational innovation, potentially opening the door for future collaboration and exchange of ideas.
