Preschool
(2-3 Years Old)
The maximum capacity of children in one classroom is 17 and includes 1 core teacher and 2 assistants. The multiage grouping has been designed to meet the needs of the whole child focusing on early learning skills and literacy readiness. This structure allows for greater differentiation in the development of young children. All instruction occurs first in English and then Albanian. The continuum of learning in preschool is based on the "I can statements below".
We believe in building a strong home-school collaboration. By working closely with families, we guarantee optimum growth in the development of the whole child. If ASB becomes your choice, be prepared to join and participate in your child's learning. Our Hand in Hand program will allow you to plan, imagine, question, play and have a great learning experience together!
The early years programme is for children from three to five years old and follows the British National Curriculum. This foundation stage prepares children for school, immersing them in an English speaking environment and developing confidence and familiarity to help them succeed at school.
