Village Montessori School The Application Process
- For any potential pupil to be considered we must receive a completed application form accompanied by a copy of the most recent academic report as well as any therapy or relevant medical or professional reports and recommendations.
- We cannot proceed with the application until we receive your forms. Parents are strongly advised to submit the application form as early as possible because enrolment date is a factor in establishing priority in the event of a shortage of places.
- Young children may be placed on the waiting list. It is important that younger siblings are also enrolled as soon as possible.
- Parents will be notified by written invitation of the dates and times that the child is required to attend an assessment. Prior to the assessment date, the non-refundable application fee of R1500 must be made.
- Students are assessed for two consecutive mornings, giving sufficient time to ascertain whether or not the prospective student will thrive in a Montessori setting.
- Assessments take place in the Montessori environments. Preschool children need to be fully toilet trained, three years of age and emotionally ready to follow basic verbal instructions and have a basic understanding of English.
- They will be required to demonstrate and display the potential to cope and adapt into the Montessori Pre-School environment.
- Parents will be notified in writing of the results of their child’s application in the week following the assessment and are asked to notify the school either verbally or in writing of their intention to accept the place within the week.
- If your child is accepted, the Good Faith Deposit is payable within the time stipulated to secure their place in the school.
- Should the child be accepted, parents will also be invited for a parent interview.
- The interview is held with both parents/caregivers, the Village Montessori Enrolment Committee and the Principal.
- This is a platform for both sides to explore expectations and suitability.
- The Enrolment Committee considers a number of factors but the key considerations are the suitability of the child to the Montessori environment, level of family commitment to the Montessori Method, welfare of the school and smooth transition for the child.
