The Preschool curriculum
The Pingu’s English Preschool curriculum – consistent with the Early Years Foundation Stage framework (EYSF) – provides rigorously planned and clearly defined educational guidelines that enable early years’ language students to gain the knowledge, skills and understanding they need to use English with confidence.
Kingston University School of Education
Kingston University’s School of Education has been ranked as the top teacher-training provider in London, and among the top six in the UK. It’s listed in the globally recognized Times Higher Education supplement as one of the top 150 young universities in the world
Program Overview
We have combined best practices of classical approaches like Montessori and Reggio Emilia with the newest research and trends into early years development with the number one in UK for Early Years Education, Kingston University London.
The demand for high quality education is growing globally and more parents achieve the economic means to give their children a head start in life.
Pingu’s English International Kindergarten, consistent with the Early Years Foundation Stage framework (EYSF), offers:
6 learning hours of activities per day, which can be flexed with snack, lunch and rest times to meet the needs of any country.
5 learning days with a week.
3 weeks per topic thread.
3 years of teaching and student content.
The program offers 36 weeks of teaching per year in total x 3 Years.
Pingu’s English International Kindergarten is designed to be a full-time, immersive childcare and education experience for children aged between 3 and 6 years.
The core aims are to prepare children to start formal schooling and to develop early bilingualism in English; essential skills for success in education and life.
They will learn subjects like Maths, Art, Literacy, Writing, Storytelling, Role Play, STEM, Confidence and social Skills, in a full English environment from a UK International Curriculum.
Included in the engaging learning the English Language program and Pingu’s English Logical Phonics to create the unique International Kindergarten curriculum. This exclusive blend of pedagogical elements ensures that the Pingu’s English International Kindergarten curriculum is truly industry-leading, engaging for children, and delivers tangible results.
International Curriculum
Pingu’s English and Kingston University London identified 6 core curricula “strands” through which children will engage with their learning in a full English speaking environment.
These curriculum skills are:
- Communication, Language, Literacy, Reading, Writing and Spelling
- Physical Development
- Personal, Social, Emotional, Health and Well Being, and Cultural Diversity
- Numeracy, Shape, Space, and Measurement
- The World and Us
- Expressive and Creative Arts
Pingu’s English also created 12 topic “threads” which provide the basis for the content and activities explored, alongside the English vocabulary taught like: Custom, Family and friends, Belongings, Food, Home life, Number, Actions, Reactions and Consequences, Colors and shapes and many others.
Pingu’s English International Preschool is designed to be primarily delivered through the medium of the English language, as a key goal of the program is to develop early bilingualism.
However, we appreciate that children in this age-group will still be developing communication skills in their mother-tongue, so it is natural and expected that some non-English support will be provided by our Preschool qualified teachers.
There is also flexibility within the Preschool schedule for all three years to add in any market-specific requirements required, such as local language instruction or religious education.
