Children First provides an integrated early years program for children aged 1 to 8. The school combines three international curricula - British Curriculum, Montessori Curriculum, and Swiss Curriculum - into a cohesive learning pathway. From toddlers to early primary learners, the program supports developmental continuity by blending Montessori's child-centered, hands-on learning with the clarity and progression of British and Swiss standards. Learning environments are designed to foster independence, curiosity, and responsible collaboration, with teachers trained to connect Montessori activities with structured activities derived from the British and Swiss frameworks. A distinctive feature is the blended curriculum approach itself, enabling younger learners to experience self-directed exploration while building foundations in literacy, numeracy, and inquiry through consistent expectations across the curricula. The school emphasizes supportive transitions between early years and primary levels, ensuring continuity of practice as children mature. This set-up offers international exposure in a nurturing setting, appealing to families seeking a diversified international education.
