Montessori compromises

My husband and I cannot agree about the curriculum we want for out daughter. He seems to be convinced that a Montessori school is the best way forward. I am not so sure. I think Montessori compromises on imagination while focussing too much on real-world learning. I think kids need to enjoy fairy tales and role plays. Would love some advice from mums and dads out here.

My boy is in a Montessori and we love it. I don't think it has compromised on his imagination at all. I think you can look at either pure montessori schools or ones that incorporate some elements of it.
