Brighton Montessori Kovan integrates social-emotional learning (SEL) through an Emotional Intelligence program that places emphasis on self-awareness, social competence, and relationships, and includes daily mindfulness breaks and reflective journaling to support students' mental well-being.
The Kovan centre describes itself as following the authentic Montessori approach with one-to-one teaching and individualised learning materials, but there is no public disclosure of specific SEN provisions or whether it is a specialist SEN institution.
The Kovan campus does not publicly disclose EAL-specific provisions; Brighton Montessori does indicate bilingual English–Mandarin immersion in its Infant Care program at other centres, aligned with ECDA's Early Years Development Framework.
Mental well-being is explicitly supported through the EI curriculum, which includes a daily mindfulness break and activities designed to foster resilience, empathy, and positive relationships.
Safeguarding is addressed in Brighton Montessori's Infant Care framework, which aligns with ECDA's EYDF and emphasizes respectful relationships, partnership with families, secure attachments, and responsive caregiving to support child protection and well-being.
