The Preschool Learning Experience:
At SJI International Preschool, the core of our curriculum follows an inquiry-based approach to learning. Inquiry learning and teaching is widely acknowledged as a highly effective approach in early childhood education, an approach that is deeply rooted in the theory of social constructivism.
Social constructivism is an active social process where children construct knowledge and understanding through interactions with others and their environment. At SJI International Preschool, we emphasise the importance of collaborative exploration, dialogue, and shared meaning-making. Through our curriculum, children engage in authentic, real-world experiences where they actively construct knowledge through exploration by questioning, investigating and reflecting on their findings in collaboration with their peers and educators.
