We are campaigning for support for a state funded Montessori primary school in the Bournemouth area for 3-11 year olds. Stillbrook Lodge is currently being opened in September as a fee-paying independent school. However, with the new legislation coming into place for state-funded independent schools, we are looking to gain as much support for this to back our application.
The local council continues to ignore the glaring need for educational diversity while families are left with no real choice. I am currently drafting a formal proposal to force their hand because our children deserve more than this rigid and failing system.

The momentum behind this push proves families in Bournemouth are done with an educational system that ignores their needs. Stillbrook Lodge is proof that the model works but we refuse to let quality education remain a luxury for the wealthy while the local council drags its feet.

Bournemouth really needs more options than just the standard curriculum. My kids would thrive in a montessori environment but we just cant afford the private fees.

Everything is so overcrowded and testing focused these days. A state school like this would be a breath of fresh air for local families who dont have thousands to spend.
