The Global Indian International School, Kuala Lumpur (GIISKL) offers an award-winning preschool programme – Global Montessori Plus Programme – that uses multi-faceted learning to develop children holistically. The school provides the fundamentals of early learning up until high school, plus a myriad of learning experiences for children to practice essential 21st century skills.
Here are a number of reasons why GIISKL is the best choice:
The Global Montessori Plus Programme (GMP) is a much-esteemed curriculum that has won laurels for combining the best practices of early childhood programmes in the world. It rests on five solid pillars, detailed below, to give preschoolers a strong foundation in their student life. Apart from language and math literacy, children will excel in public speaking, develop higher sensitivity to the environment and their surroundings, and be ready to perform well in primary school.
The 5 Pillars of GMP
i. Excelerate Programme
This programme emphasises on giving children fluency in language through listening, speaking, reading and writing skills, as well as providing numeracy skills through maths in a fun and interesting manner. It uses an individualised approach to foster children to become fast and eager learners from a young age.
ii. Multi-Faceted Learning
Teachers recognise that every child is different and they seek to nurture the child’s unique potential. To help their intellectual capacities grow steadily, teachers adopt a Thematic Learning methodology to create interactive activities that captivate children’s interests. The wide variety of learning experiences provided will help nurture all-rounders.
iii. iPlay Programme
Play is an essential element of the preschool curriculum for children’s physical, social-emotional and cognitive development. Here at GIISKL, the right environment is carefully designed for children to interact and learn. Teachers give them the choice of what to play, how to play and whom to play with under thorough supervision. This well-thought approach is meant to encourage children to accumulate information and assimilate it which in turn inculcates in them the skills of independence, cooperation and management.
iv. iCare Programme
Sensitising children towards the community and the environment is another major component of the GMP programme. Through activities like gardening or charity drives, children are taught the universal values of compassion, kindness and giving. Interaction with community members and participation in bonding activities are also ways used to help them understand the importance of honesty, punctuality and integrity which are strong character-building foundations for their bright future.
v. Future-Ready Programme
This future-ready programme includes a dynamic, hands-on approach to learning Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM). These subjects encourage creativity in children and polishes their mental capabilities of critical thinking, giving them an early start to understand the key disciplines of the 21st century.
Warm and patient teachers with a wealth of experience in early childhood education unfold the preschool curriculum methodically and gradually. Their individual attention and personal connection with every child go a long way in helping children achieve their potential to the fullest at the end of three years.
GIISKL fees are competitive compared to most international schools in the Klang Valley.
That’s not all, children who join kindergarten at GIISKL are all set for a versatile academic experience that seamlessly transitions to Grade 12. International curricula options like Cambridge and CBSE, and a scholarship programme, chart out an enriching learning experience for children and chisel them into well-rounded and academically brilliant individuals.
