Brighton Montessori's Social-Emotional Learning is positioned as a core focus within an enhanced Emotional Intelligence (EI) curriculum. Mindfulness breaks are conducted daily for about ten minutes, led by teachers to support emotional well-being and concentration. Reflective journaling is incorporated, particularly for the N2 to K2 cohorts, to foster self-expression and weekly reflection. The EI framework targets recognizing and understanding emotions, empathy development, and effective relationship management as key competencies. Overall, the program aims to enhance resilience, promote positive relationships, support mental well-being, and foster leadership skills.
The East Coast page does not publicly disclose information about SEN provision or policies. There is no explicit detail on the kinds of Special Educational Needs the school can support or whether it operates as a specialist SEN institution. Published materials describe Montessori pedagogy and holistic development but do not list SEN staffing or targeted programmes. The Infant Care content mentions general safety and care standards but does not specify any SEN support framework. Therefore, explicit SEN services and staff are not publicly disclosed in the available materials.
Infant Care includes bilingual English-Mandarin immersion as part of its language environment. For other age groups, publicly disclosed information about dedicated EAL programmes or staff is not provided. Language support appears to be delivered through immersion rather than explicit EAL instruction or separate EAL staff. The published materials do not specify whether English or Mandarin are the languages of instruction across all centres. Based on publicly available information, EAL provisions are not detailed beyond bilingual immersion in Infant Care.
The EI curriculum explicitly includes 'Support Mental Well-being' as a key learning outcome. Daily mindfulness breaks contribute to mental well-being and enhanced concentration. Reflective journaling supports emotional awareness and self-regulation, especially for older age groups. The framework emphasizes resilience, positive relationships, and leadership development as part of social-emotional growth. In practice, these elements are integrated into daily routines within the EI curriculum.
Infant Care safety features include CCTV surveillance, baby-proofed spaces, soft mats, padded corners, and age-appropriate furniture. A strict 1:3 caregiver-to-child ratio is maintained in the infant area to ensure attentive supervision. Health and hygiene measures include isolating ill infants and requiring doctor clearance for re-admittance. Public materials do not provide a detailed safeguarding policy, nor a designated safeguarding lead for the East Coast location. Therefore, while basic safety practices are described, formal safeguarding policies are not publicly disclosed in the available materials.
