School Details

School-based curriculum designed on the basis of child-centred teaching and learning strategies. We emphasize learning through games to foster self-directed learning of children. Through games, exploration and sharing of experiences, learning interest and potentials are stimulated. Children will gain first-hand experience, develop stronger skills and master extended concepts to lay good foundation for life learning. We will follow the “Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide” (2017) to plan curriculum. Children of nursery classes will not be asked to write, and there will not be mechanical copying exercises and drills on calculation.
