Founded on the above two beliefs, our emphasis on a literacy-focused approach birthed the Bespoke Reading Programme - the only individualised reading programme conducted at a 1:1 teacher to student ratio.
Our international preschool curriculum prepares students for up to Primary 2 in local MOE schools, without neglecting broader learning across Art, Music, Sports and Taekwondo. Our lessons encourage class participation and discussion, and are delivered by international teachers who share that same culture and personality.
This is the fundamental level of preschool education, in-line with ECDA’s framework. Our core classes cover all areas of study offered in Singapore preschools. We are also proud that the Bilingual Immersion programme pioneered by Lorna Whiston has been widely recognised, and is now part of most preschool curriculums.
