RHT Supported Projects
Children’s House Montessori is committed to fostering the holistic development of every child, encompassing their emotional well-being, mental health, and overall potential. By collaborating with parents and professionals, the center aims to create a supportive environment that nurtures concentration, engagement, and a love for learning.
The Montessori educational approach serves as the foundation for this comprehensive development, while a multi-disciplinary team of experts provides specialized support for children with Additional or Specific needs, including those with Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) challenges.
Through regular assessments and the integration of various therapies, including play therapy supported by the Red Hill Trust, Children’s House Montessori continues to enhance its Centre of Excellence. This collaborative effort ensures that children receive the best possible holistic education while providing teachers with ongoing professional development opportunities to maintain best practices in the field.

OVERVIEW

The Red Hill Trust was founded by Otto Shaw in 1948 to manage a school for children with emotional and behavioural difficulties. It was established at Charlton Court in East Sutton, Maidstone, taking its name from earlier premises in Chislehurst, Kent.
