Foundational Years Programme

The TRIO WORLD SCHOOL ICSE Foundational Years Programme focuses on providing a stimulating environment and curriculum for the holistic and healthy development of children. The Foundational Year comprises of three years of pre-primary (Nursery, Kindergarten 1 and Kindergarten 2) at TRIO TOTS and two years of primary (Class I & II).

Our Foundational Years curriculum a happy blend of various Early Years Educational philosophies based on the NEP 2020's proposal to provide the children with a child-centred curriculum that prepares them for the rigor of the Preparatory stage (Class III, IV & V).

The curriculum for the first three years of learning in the pre-primary at TOTS (Nursery, Kindergarten 1, and Kindergarten 2) is an eclectic mix of:

• Multiple Intelligence Theory by Howard Gardener
• Play Way & Kindergarten Method by Friedrich Fröbel
• Montessori by Maria Montessori
• Reggio Emilia by Lorris Malaguzzi

At TRIO we believe that all children can learn in a nurturing, supportive and child centric environment.
Our principles emulate the vision and mission on which TRIO stands:

• Create a community of life-long learners.
• Allow for individual differences and creativity in meeting academic needs.
• Realise the implications technology will have on the children's lives.
• Encourage each child to take responsibility for his/her own learning.
• Support creative, critical thinking for students, staff and community.
