evolving education to prioritize the learning processes of uniquely capable individuals
Inspired by Reggio Emilia Approach to early childhood education,
Reggio & Co. cultivates a student-centered and constructivist pedagogy that supports experiential learning in a relationship-driven environment.
Reggio Emilia Approach (n):
Reggio Emilia is actually a town in Italy!
Originated after World War II (when priorities of respect and community were re-evaluated), the Reggio Emilia approach is an educational philosophy that emphasizes the child as a competent, curious, and capable. Loris Malaguzzi developed this approach with the aim of creating an educational system that valued the unique capabilities and potential of each child. He sought to challenge traditional teaching methods and promote active inquiry, exploration, and collaboration. In his view, this peaceful approach to education should empower children to become critical thinkers, problem solvers, and active contributors to society.
