Teaching and education
Montessori teachers help very young children to grow in confidence, and learn at their own pace.
You could do a foundation degree or degree in any subject and then train as a Montessori teacher. You could also study a diploma, foundation degree or degree in Montessori early childhood practice. This would include theory and practical work-based placements. Courses can be flexible and offer a mix of classroom-based and online study.
You'll usually need 1 or 2 A-Levels, or equivalent, for a foundation degree or higher national diploma. You'll need 2 to 3 A-Levels, or equivalent, for a degree.

You may be able to set up your own school, or take on a franchise either in the UK or overseas.

Secondary school teachers teach children from 11 to 16, or up to 19 in schools with sixth forms.
