The school follows the guidelines and the vision of the Ministry of Education UAE and the guidelines on curriculum as per the vision of the National Curriculum Framework [NCF] 2005.

The Kindergarten caters to the needs and demands of early childhood learning. Knowing that this is a critical stage in the physical, intellectual, and emotional development of the child, our learning interfaces and methodologies are child-friendly and fun. The entire Kindergarten areas and classes are designed keeping in mind the needs of this age group. Our teachers are especially sensitized in the early developmental stages of children so that they are sensitive to the needs of children. In classes and outside children learn many of the verbal, motor, and social skills that will equip them in life. The curriculum allows the space for the child to develop and encourage children’s initiatives. Subjects like numeracy, language skills, and social skills are taught in an organic and applied manner that allows the child to better grasp concepts and the relation between concepts and the real world.
