children under 4 years and zero days weren’t allowed to begin learning numbers
ouch. someone hasn't been paying attention in their training.
there is no hard date to introduce any activity. if children are interested in an activity, they are introduced to it. or to a simpler one that leads up to it. applying a hard date shows lack of understanding of the different speed of childrens development.
if it's not to late i'd read up a bit on the montessori method and confront the teachers about it. they are clearly doing it wrong. i'd also check who certified that school, or where the teachers were trained.
unfortunately, the montessori name is not protected, and anyone school can claim to be montessori, even if they are not.
