Curriculum planning
|
Design different thematic learning with "child-centered". The school uses game teaching as a strategy to encourage students to explore freely, build self-confidence and improve problem-solving skills. In addition, the school promotes "Life Education" to cultivate students' attitude of practicing kindness and gratitude.
We will follow the "Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide" (2017) to plan curriculum. Children of nursery classes will not be asked to write, and there will not be mechanical copying exercises and drills on calculation.
|
Learning / Teaching approach and activities
|
Adopt flexible large-class or group teaching methods, and promote courses with children’s life-oriented theme game teaching and project study. Through diversified learning activities, children are allowed to explore freely from games and learn to learn to promote autonomous learning; express and solve problems; promote life education through one-person, one-flower planting activities and caring community activities, and establish children's correct values from an early age.
|
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
|
A ‘profile on learning’ is kept for ongoing observations and records of a child’s learning and development. Children’s performance in learning is analyzed and the learning outcomes are observed and recorded on an ongoing basis.
|

Support to students
|
There are school social workers, and teachers often observe the individual development of children, provide individual counselling or referrals for children with special needs, and liaise closely with parents.
The school will set up a lecture for parents of new students before enrollment, and an adjustment period for new students after enrollment; in addition, parents at all levels are invited to the school to observe lessons every year, so that parents can understand their children's learning situation.
At the end of the school year, preparations for the transition of children into promotion and primary one are prepared.
