I should probably know this by now seeing as my DD is starting school this year but we're moving soon, to Brighton, so we didn't want to apply anywhere till we knew for sure about the house. I was talking to a friend the other day about different types of schools, I've only heard of private, state and comprehensive. I just went to the local school down the road as a child. My friend was talking about these "atlternative" type of schools, I figured out there was a Montessori school close to where we're moving to. I understand it has a different approach to education. I wanted to know more about it. Is it too late in the year now?
