PURPOSE OF EDUCATION


KIS's preschool program comprises two grade levels: Kindergarten (KG) for 5-year-olds and Pre-Kindergarten (PK) for 4-year-olds. The overarching aim of KIS preschool education is the holistic development and well-being of young learners.

 

The curriculum framework is structured around three primary emphases: the cultivation of ethical conduct and routines, the nurturing of self-reliance and innovation, and the appreciation and reverence for diverse cultures. Grounded in these principles, we have devised and executed a curriculum covering five domains: physical education and health, communicative competence, social dynamics, artistic engagement, and environmental inquiry.

 

Considering the developmental traits specific to 4-year-olds and 5-year-olds, the curriculum distribution is adjusted accordingly. For 5-year-olds, an educational regimen aligned with the preparatory standards for entry into elementary school's first grade is integrated at suitable intervals.
