HELP International Preschool
We adopt the International Early Years Curriculum (IEYC). The IEYC has a focus on the best practices in early childhood education and developmental needs. Learning is holistic. It is both enquiry-based and discovery-focused, incorporating all seven areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage.
At HELP International School (HIS), we take an approach that is both enquiry-based and discovery-focused, centred around allowing the children to discover the joy of learning.
- Low teacher-child ratio
- Children encouraged to explore the activity and work independently
or with others to enhance sustained shared thinking - Their sense of security is supported and emboldened
7 Learning Areas of the Foundation Stage
- Social and emotional development (personal learning goals)
- Communication and language (English, Mandarin, Bahasa Malaysia)
- Knowledge and understanding of the world (International Mindedness)
- Literacy
- Mathematics
- Physical development (PE)
- Expressive arts and design (Drama, Music, Arts)
Sharing Your Child’s Learning
All the children’s learning is uploaded onto SeeSaw, a secure online learning journal to help your family celebrate your child’s learning and development. Using photos, videos and diary entries, the teacher will build a very special record of your child’s experiences and journey through their early years. In addition to viewing your child’s progress, parents are also able to upload their own thoughts, comments and home observations to the teacher.
In addition, there will be:
- Weekly updates with an overview of the learning that has taken place will be covered
- Parent-Teacher Meetings
- Termly Report Cards
Preparing for Primary School
Predictable routines help children know what to expect and feel secure. With a structured timetable, the children understand expectations, and it provides them a sense of order and security, as they learn to follow a routine. Establishing these routines will also assist in preparing the children for the rigours of Primary School, both academically and socially.
- Preschool marks the first stage of our Primary School
- Set lessons throughout the week; Phonics, Maths, Science, Storytelling/Library, Music and PE
- Instil a strong sense of Malaysian/Asian identity in the children through exposure to Asian languages (Bahasa Malaysia and Mandarin)
- Well-rounded curriculum: learning outside of the classroom through play and exploration
- Soft skills: independence, communication (enquiry and listening), problem-solving, self-control and self-confidence
- Preschool teachers work in collaboration with our Year 1 and Year 2 teachers to plan and deliver systematic learning pathways that focus on social and academic progress
