"Give your child the opportunity to be part of a program which will allows them to flourish and grow!"
The learning support is fostered with the help of our caring and passionate educators at B4 big school.
Our team provides the place and space for personal growth, supporting most importantly each child's attention span, learning the basic early foundation skills, which leads to building greater confidence into the your child's most important school year....(Kindergarten - big school can be a sensitive period for your child).
Some students still find the first few years of primary school a bit of a struggle so they need a bit of push or some support. We further aim to teach the students to learn and understand how to study and how to stay motivated. We want them to understand that YES, they can eventually complete tasks on their own.
At B4 big school, we also acknowledge that sometimes the students have a STRENGTH in one area of learning and a NEED with another area of learning and our attitude towards the students is the following. "This is okay, we can work on this together, and you will get there!"
