Montessori Spirit was created to accompany and support the development of Montessori pedagogy.

So it's only right that we should be there to support you from the very start of your project. As such, we can intervene at several levels, transparently and free of charge , on the Nienhuis and GAM (Gonzagarredi) ranges.

We only work with AMI-approved Montessori materials:

• faithful to the pedagogy and goals sought,
• faithful to Maria Montessori and children,
• durable over time,
• with ethics and values

A wide range of furnishings and complementary educational games means there's everything for a complete school or family education.

We've been testing this equipment for over 10 years at our school.... It's certainly an investment!

But Montessori pedagogy is partly based on these materials, which we owe to parents and children alike.

• Project definition: setting up a school requires not only equipment, but also furniture. Rarely do you buy everything at the outset. Montessori Spirit is there to help you define your project according to the premises and your ambience.
• Layout: you also need to define areas for working, reading, resting and eating.... Each requires specific furniture and equipment. We're here to help you define your layout and Montessori equipment needs.
• Business plan: we can also help you draw up your business plan, which will often be required for a banking package or financing application. We can of course draw up estimates for you, but we can also help you draft your business plan.
• Quotations: we can study and refine your project through several quotations, which we will fine-tune with you right up to the opening of your school. It's rare for the first estimate to be the one that's chosen, as elements are often added and subtracted. A project is built and evolves, and we're here to be at your side.

Any structure starting up often requires substantial cash flow, which is often insufficient. Aware of the volume and the stakes for you, Montessori Spirit helps you with a discount adapted to your project and a possible spread over time.

There's a lot of equipment to choose from, and economic constraints are often significant at the outset. So it's often a budget (even if it shouldn't be) that dictates choices as well as concessions, adding to the equipment as the ambiance develops.

While practical life and the sensorial do not suffer from much choice, several elements influence the final estimate: the choices of the educator, the quality of the beads chosen, the extent of the material in mathematics and geography in particular, the purchase of important elements such as bells, the purchase or not of numerous complementary materials...

A complete ambience, excluding furniture, averages around €15,000 (excluding VAT) for equipment, but can range from €5,000 to €20,000 (excluding VAT), depending on the budget... the range is vast!

Montessori Spirit is with you every step of the way, leaving you to concentrate on finding the right premises, which is often the most difficult and personal part of the process. For everything else, we're with you - and you're not alone.

Whether you're setting up a small Montessori workshop or deciding to open a school, don't hesitate to contact us for quotes or to study the feasibility of a project: [email protected]

We're here to support you and help make your project feasible, not to devour your budget!

We can provide you with an Excel file, grouping the main equipment by ambience area and age group, so that you can determine more precisely your own needs, the most suitable for your ambience, while having an idea of the final cost.
