Early childhood is a time of remarkable growth – cognitively, socially, and emotionally. At BIS Abu Dhabi, we understand that these formative years shape not only a child’s future learning but also their long-term happiness and wellbeing.
That’s why we offer a high-quality, holistic Early Years education, where every day is filled with meaningful, joyful experiences. In our safe, inclusive, and nurturing environments, children feel secure and supported to explore, play, and grow.
Guided by caring, experienced teachers, our youngest learners develop independence, confidence, and key life skills – from communication and social interaction to fine and gross motor development and emotional regulation.
At BIS Abu Dhabi, our nursery and reception children follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum, carefully adapted to our international context.
In classes of no more than 20 children, with a dedicated teacher and two assistants, your child receives the attention they deserve. Our personalised approach ensures each student is supported in the way they learn best, helping them to flourish from the very start.
We work closely with parents, too – inviting you into the classroom and keeping you regularly updated on your child’s journey.
At BIS Abu Dhabi, learning in the Early Years is active, hands-on, and fun. Through multi-sensory, purposeful play, your child will investigate and create, move and sing, collaborate and explore.
Every activity is guided by the EYFS framework, ensuring children develop vital literacy, numeracy, physical, and social skills while sparking curiosity and imagination. Topics like ‘Let’s Go Explore’ and ‘Down in the Deep Dark Woods’ turn learning into exciting adventures.
We empower our students to take the lead in their learning – choosing how and what they want to explore. This helps to nurture a love of discovery, a sense of ownership, and the development of individual passions that can last a lifetime.
