Easier permits for Montessori teachers

The law urges California’s teacher credentialing commission to move quickly on a pathway for Montessori educators to get Child Development Permits. It also asks the commission to explore more Montessori credential options. This is advisory only. It does not add funding, set a deadline, or force action. If the commission approves a pathway, Montessori and other early-childhood teachers may have new ways to qualify.
