CAMBRIDGE EARLY YEARS PROGRAMME (KINDERGARTEN)

Cambridge Early Years programme is the start of an exciting educational journey that helps learners aged 3 to 6 develop the knowledge, understanding and skills they need to make the best possible start in life.

It gives centres everything they need to deliver a quality early years education: a holistic and balanced curriculum, engaging classroom resources, assessment approaches to measure learners’ progress, and professional development opportunities. Teaching and learning is play-based and child-centred, and focuses on building learners’ skills and confidence in key developmental areas.

We developed Cambridge Early Years in line with international best practice and research, and in collaboration with pioneers of early education in India.

Experience

A Learning should complement the social and cultural factors (like experiences of home and community) that shape a child’s learning and development.

Active

Children should be involved in their own learning through well-planned experiences that help them develop competence, agency, emotional attachment and self-worth.

Balance

Learning should encourage an appropriate balance of physical, cognitive, language and communications, and social and emotional development.

Play

AGS focuses on developing and strengthening Intelligence quotient (IQ — ’Capability, Emotional Quotient (EQ) — ‘Will‘ and Spiritual quotient(SQ)—‘Purpose’among the students by initiating diverse events and activities

Transition

Aimed at developing students into wholesome and holistic personalities, the Personality Development programs incorporate intensive training and workshops by professional trainers.

Curriculum content is split into six subject areas:

Communication, language & literacy

Speaking, listening, reading and writing are crucial to children's early development. Showing children the importance of language through fun activities and encouraging them to engage with a wide range of texts helps to ignite a lifelong curiosity for learning. While the Cambridge Early Years curriculum is designed for teaching and learning in English, celebrating the home language(s) of learners is also very important.

Understanding the world

Children’s natural curiosity must be encouraged, so that they are equipped to reflect, question, explore and interact, and guided in their understanding of the world. This area of the curriculum lays foundations for a range of different subjects in primary education and beyond, including science, digital literacy, history, geography and religious education.

Mathematics

At an early age, it's important to help children recognise how mathematics impacts everyday life. Through games and activities, we can introduce children to mathematical language, thinking and concepts that they will need when they start their primary education.

Physical development

Our curriculum encourages children to develop movement skills through play, promoting positive attitudes towards exercise and laying the foundations for healthy, active lives.

Creative expression

Creative expression allows children to communicate their ideas and develop their imagination through art and design, music, dance and drama. This important curriculum area brings together skills and cognitive processes from across the whole curriculum.

Personal, social & emotional development

This area underpins children’s wellbeing and attainment in all other areas of their learning. It helps them to develop social learning and friendships, regulate their emotional responses and respond to the needs of others, and develop self-esteem and confidence.
