Kindergarten Education at The English Modern School

At The English Modern School, our Kindergarten follows the Cambridge Early Years Curriculum, laying a strong foundation for future learning through the Cambridge International Primary Program. This thoughtfully designed curriculum nurtures young learners by fostering key areas of development—physical, cognitive, language, communication, social, and emotional—setting the stage for a lifelong journey of growth and learning.

Key Areas of Development

Our engaging activities help students develop essential skills across a range of foundational areas:

• Communication, Language, and Literacy

• Creative Expression

• Mathematics
  Introduces basic mathematical concepts through hands-on activities and problem-solving.
• Personal, Social, and Emotional Development

• Physical Development
  Promotes coordination and physical fitness through active play.
• Understanding the World
  Encourages curiosity about the environment and different cultures.

Hands-On Learning in KG1 & KG2

Our KG1 and KG2 year levels follow a hands-on program with standards that prepare learners for the Cambridge Primary Programme. The curriculum is centered around inquiry and creative, purposeful play, developing skills and understanding that provide a solid foundation for future learning.

Teachers utilize the Montessori method, focusing on self-directed and hands-on learning. This approach encourages students to make choices and decisions, use materials in flexible and imaginative ways, initiate inquiry and ask questions, collaborate with others, and develop a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them.

A Vibrant Learning Environment

We provide a vibrant, creative environment that combines play and inquiry-based activities, cultivating active and enthusiastic learners. Our goal is to foster a positive attitude toward school and inspire a lifelong love for learning.

Culturally Diverse Community

At EMS, we take pride in our culturally diverse community, where children are encouraged to become tolerant and caring global citizens. In partnership with parents, we celebrate every child as a unique individual, providing them with a loving, safe, and nurturing learning environment.

Holistic Education

Additionally, students receive Arabic Language and Islamic Studies classes as integral parts of their holistic education, enriching their cultural and ethical understanding.
