Parents Place Nurturing Education at the Heart of Cameron’s ‘Big Society’
Big Society Little People Press Release
Big Society Little People Infographic
The survey was commissioned by Montessori and carried out in conjunction with netmums late 2010 and early 2011.1,341 people responded to the online survey – all of whom were parents or expecting their first baby.
The results show that parents want to place nurturing education at the heart of Cameron’s Big Society agenda and budget. Of those parents who aren’t happy with their child’s schooling experience, the main reasons cited are the “one fit” approach, large class sizes and a national curriculum which is too narrow in focus.
Montessori is all about the unique child. Parents understand more closely than anyone what their children need to grow up into confident, contented and responsible adults.
We hope that education policy makers will read this survey and take note of its findings. If we get the early years’ right, then society will be the richer for it.
