The goal of the Bilingual Montessori Innovations project was to develop and implement an innovative bilingual Montessori education program in partner schools in Poland and the Czech Republic. The project strengthened international cooperation among teachers, enhanced their linguistic and methodological competencies through training, and standardized teaching practices. Through mobility and experience exchange, educators improved their skills in bilingual Montessori instruction. The project also contributed to increasing the international scope of the participating organizations’ activities and improving the quality of language education for students, preparing them for functioning in a multilingual environment.
The Bilingual Montessori Innovations project was implemented in response to the identified needs of Montessori schools in Poland and the Czech Republic regarding the enhancement of bilingual education quality. The project partners recognized the necessity of developing a cohesive curriculum that integrates the Montessori method with bilingual instruction, allowing students to develop their language competencies while standardizing educational practices across partner schools. The project also addressed the need for increased international collaboration among teaching staff, enabling the exchange of experiences and best practices while enhancing teachers’ qualifications through training and mobility. Additionally, the project contributed to the linguistic development of educators, strengthening their ability to work effectively in an international educational environment. As part of the project, an innovative bilingual Montessori education program was developed, implemented in partner schools, and supported by international teacher training sessions, effectively addressing the identified needs and challenges.
