Yes. Its contemporary curriculum draws on Pathways’ experience with the IB Primary Years Programme and is inspired by Reggio Emilia, Montessori and Playway approaches

The preschool offers age-appropriate programmes for Pre-Toddlers, Toddlers, Pre-Nursery, Nursery and Kindergarten, covering children from 12 months to six years.

Its learning experiences support cognitive, social, emotional, creative, communication and physical development through hands-on activities, music, movement, art and collaborative play.

Timings are age-appropriate and increase gradually: Pre-Toddlers and Toddlers attend for 3 hours, Pre-Nursery for 4 hours, and Nursery and Kindergarten for 5 hours, giving children a comfortable transition into longer school days as they grow.

Children can join from as early as 12 months in the Pre-Toddlers programme, with dedicated stages for Toddlers (2–3 years), Pre-Nursery (3–4 years), Nursery (4–5 years) and Kindergarten (5–6 years), so every age group has a programme designed around its developmental needs.
