How can Montessori education help children develop the skills to manage their own thinking, learning and behaviour?

Join us on Wednesday 30 September at 19:00 CET for the next free webinar in the Montessori Europe 2026–2027 Webinar Series.

Lynnette Brock, Director of SchemaPlay CIC, will explore the development of executive function and metacognition in early childhood, including attention, working memory, emotional regulation, flexibility and the ability to reflect on one’s own thinking.

The webinar will consider why these skills flourish in high-quality learning environments and how Montessori materials, culture and the prepared environment naturally support their development.

An insightful session for Montessori educators interested in understanding the important connection between Montessori practice, metacognition and the lifelong skills that underpin learning, wellbeing and resilience.

Free to attend | Open to all

How can Montessori education remain deeply human, developmentally grounded, and ethically strong in an increasingly digital world?

In this webinar, Sarah Kennedy-Berge shares insights from her research, classroom practice, and international teacher education work to explore what Montessori in the Digital Age truly means. Rather than focusing on devices or trends, the session centres on the prepared adult, creative technology as a form of expression, and meaningful integration across the Montessori curriculum. Participants will be invited to reflect on how thoughtfully chosen digital tools can support creativity, agency, collaboration, and cosmic education, while remaining firmly rooted in Montessori principles.

Date and Time: 15 April 2026 at 19:00 CET

Some of the most meaningful moments of a congress don’t happen on a stage.

They happen in the spaces between sessions - over coffee, in quiet conversations after a keynote, or when you realise that someone from another country is grappling with the very same questions you are.

As we approach the Montessori Europe Congress in March, we’re looking forward not only to the formal programme, but also to these in-between moments: the listening, the sharing, the unexpected connections that often stay with us long after we return home.

We can’t wait to create the space for those conversations to unfold.

We are truly delighted that adolescents from across Europe will be joining us at the Congress as part of the Adolescent Voice Collective.

Throughout the Congress, these young people will take part in a rich and carefully held programme designed especially for them that creates space to think together, to question, to reflect, and to express what matters to them in the world they are inheriting.

We are deeply aware that adolescent voices are too often spoken about, rather than truly listened to. The Adolescent Voice Collective is our commitment to doing something different that makes space for presence, contribution, and agency.

We are very much looking forward to welcoming these young people, learning alongside them, and hearing the perspectives they bring. Their voices matter and we are honoured that they will be part of this Congress.
