Early Childhood Program at ISKL

The International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL) elementary campus provides a warm and caring atmosphere where students are taught to collaborate constructively, think creatively, reason critically and communicate effectively. We recognize that not all students learn in the same way and structure our programs and instruction to meet these different needs. We offer activities for students to explore varying interests and develop skills in academic, artistic and athletic fields as we assist each student in reaching his or her full potential. Our mission is to help children to grow and develop into responsible, ethical, caring, contributing adults.

Early Childhood Education

The Prep Reception (3 year old) and Prep Junior (4 year old) programs seek to foster each child’s intellectual, physical, emotional, social, cultural, and aesthetic growth. Our basic philosophy is that children learn best by doing. Their discovery is concrete and based on their own experiences. The children are given opportunities to explore, experiment, and discover with hands-on materials.

Our curriculum is integrated and introduces meaningful themes, which spark children’s natural curiosities, interests and enthusiasm. Each child has an individual pattern of growth, personality, and learning style. We maintain that education for young learners develops in ever widening concentric circles. Skills are sequentially built throughout the Prep Reception and Prep Junior programs. The children are given the opportunity to learn, grow and develop in a climate of genuine affection and warmth in their own time and in their own unique way.
