We understand that becoming independent is a vital part of a child's development. Our curriculum encourages children to take ownership of their learning by making choices, communicating their needs, and developing self-regulation skills. By promoting these traits, we help children gain confidence in themselves and their abilities. One of the key aspects of the Experience Curriculum is helping children transition smoothly into a structured school environment. Teachers work with students to follow the class schedule and routines, helping them understand the importance of time management and responsibility. This approach ensures that children are well-prepared for the expectations of school life.
