EARLY YEAR FOUNDATION STAGE
The Foundation Years (age 3 to 5) are some of the most crucial years of a child’s education as they lay the foundation for future development.
Our teachers and teaching assistants are experts in early education and ensure that each child’s education and development needs are addressed, monitored and met.
Our EYFS curriculum is multi-sensory and play-based and has been rated Outstanding by the KHDA in the 2016-17 DSIB report. The Quality of Teaching and Use of Assessment have also been rated as Outstanding in the latest report.
