Guides, not just teachers.
Our educators observe closely, guide gently, and shape every classroom around the children in it.
Our Founder
Ms. Shantha Shankar
“Every child is a unique story waiting to unfold. Our work is to give that story room.”
A devoted Montessori facilitator, Ms. Shantha Shankar founded Darwin Montessori House of Children in 2015, and Darwin Public School grew from it in 2021, bringing Montessori and ICSE together in one nurturing place, where children explore their interests and grow as individuals.
