Nurturing Curious Minds
At BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi, children aged 3 to 6 begin their learning journey with joy and intentional care. Rather than rushing, our child-centered, play-based approach gives your child the space to grow at their own pace while building strong foundations in physical coordination, problem-solving, communication, and social-emotional confidence.
Curriculum
Grounded in the world-renowned Cambridge Early Years Curriculum and its 12 Key Principles, we help your little ones connect what they learn to the world around them. Our learning approaches bridge early curiosity with real-world understanding, ensuring a smooth and confident transition into Primary school.

Activities
Our Early Years classroom experience:
- a holistic approach, which builds connections between different curriculum areas as well as developing children’s learning attributes following the Cambridge Learner’s Attributes.
- active learning, which puts the child at the centre of their learning so they are engaged in their learning rather than passively listening and receiving information.
- a play-based approach, which involves children learning through playful activities that are either child-initiated or adult-guided.
- a focus on developing speaking and listening skills, which enable children to communicate, make sense of the world, and develop through social interactions.
- a multilingual approach, which supports the learning of bilingual and multilingual children and celebrates home languages.
- a focus on developing self-regulation, which develops children’s awareness and control of their own thinking, learning, and emotions.
