Montessori first analyses the characteristics and needs of children from seven to twelve and asserts that when a special environment is provided, the pre-adolescent is easily able to apply himself or herself, to fields of study normally reserved for older children. At the time when this work was first published, Maria Montessori’s ideas for education of adolescents were radically new.She proposed an experimental school for social life where children and their predominantly young teachers would live in a self-contained rural community, self-governing and to a considerable extent self-supporting.
