Pre-School Express is an early childhood education center serving kids between the ages of 2 and 6 in Kiwatule, Uganda. We offer a top-notch learning environment, roomy, modern facilities, and a cozy, safe environment.
Curriculum
Each child can develop their full potential, achieve their best, and learn the wonder and delight of discovery through the school’s carefully crafted curriculum, which reflects a blend of nationally and globally recognized teaching methodologies. By helping each child build self-confidence, a solid foundation for learning, and proper social skills, we prepare them for primary school and beyond.
Our curriculum uses a balanced, child-centered approach with teacher-directed learning that fosters and develops the strength and talent of every child to guarantee that kids gain a solid academic foundation in math, languages, science, art, and music.
Our curriculum combines nationally and globally recognized teaching strategies and has been created to support each student in realizing their greatest potential, doing their best work, and discovering the wonder and joy of learning. The British Early Years Foundation Stage is used in conjunction with the Ugandan Learning Framework for Early Childhood Development.
We focus 80% of the activities in our younger courses on learning through play because it is crucial for young children’s development. Parents are provided information about each level of the curriculum and how to help their children meet the goals during a Parent Briefing held at the start of the school year. (usually third week of first term).
