Montessori Academy is thrilled to announce that our Barangaroo campus achieved an ‘Exceeding the National Quality Standard’ rating after undergoing the assessment and rating process in December 2016.

Area Manager, Anna Valente, said: “The Barangaroo team have worked consistently and passionately to achieve such an outstanding outcome.

“We have tremendously dedicated educators working at our Barangaroo campus, and achieving an exceeding rating only reaffirms the value of their ongoing hard work to deliver excellence in early childhood education every day,” said Anna.

To achieve an ‘Exceeding’ rating, an early childhood service must be formally assessed by the Australian Children’s Education & Care Quality Authority (ACECQA), and demonstrate excellence in the seven national quality areas that comprise the National Quality Standards.

Barangaroo Montessori Academy achieved an Exceeding NQS rating in aspects of all seven areas of the NQS, with an emphasis on educational program and practice, relationships with children, and children’s health and safety.

Comments from the ACECQA Assessor stated: “Your service is commended on its achievements in providing quality outcomes for children.

“In particular, careful planning, reflective practice and willingness to collaborate with families and other community organisations to enhance children’s learning and wellbeing demonstrate the commitment to quality by educators at your service.”

Montessori Academy is incredibly proud of the Barangaroo team for their ongoing dedication to delivering a Montessori early education program that exceeds expectation.
