Big Apple, SS2 is the start of a bright future for little ones. Rooted in the school’s aim “To Inspire and Nurture the Young Minds”, Big Apple’s signature programmes aim to develop the whole child, enabling each and every one of their students to become a competent and contributing member of the society. The core of the school is fueled by a forward-looking curriculum and inspired by experienced teachers. It is the vision and mission of Big Apple to expand its reach by establishing more branches and increase the very best educational opportunities for prospective students. It is also to meet the needs and desires of many local families today to adequately prepare their children for a global future.
For more than 20 years, families have trusted Big Apple to educate and nurture their children. Here’s why:
-
A Broad, Holistic Education
Big Apple welcomes the youngest preschoolers with carefully calibrated programmes. A forward-looking curriculum enables students to attain a strong command of fundamental academic knowledge and a mastery of essential life skills. During this time of astonishing growth, teachers help students to uncover how they can learn in ways that each child learns best. Students are inspired to ask big questions and pursue creative, meaningful answers through hands-on interactive learning opportunities and drama-based teaching instructions. Connecting learning with dramatic approaches enhances creativity and keeps students actively involved in the learning process.
An important part of the Big Apple approach is introducing students to new educational concepts when they are developmentally ready, making learning natural and fun. Through a balanced mixture of varied experiments, activities and workbooks, students build a strong foundation of transferable skills when being engaged in learning S.T.E.A.M. – Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics – concepts. It is part of the curriculum to help children become mentally and physically well-rounded.
Students are also given the advantage to extend their educational experience with supplemental programmes that complement the core curriculum including drama classes. Students get to sing, dance, pretend play, and be empowered to become confident, expressive children.
-
Individualised Teaching and Learning
Teachers strive to build joyful classroom connections geared to the needs of each child. The programme reflects age-appropriate learning that allows a child to learn one step at a time. In the eyes of the teachers, each child is seen as a capable and curious individual who is rich in potential. There is a strong sense of acceptance that makes each child feel confident to express his or her true self.
At the heart of the school is a strong commitment to promote innovative teaching methods that encourage active learning. Big Apple stretches teachers to be open-minded, reflective learners through routine in-house training sessions.
-
Supportive Environment and Well-Appointed Learning Spaces
Nothing is more important than the safety and wellbeing of the students enrolled within. Every detail of the classrooms to the outdoor playground is carefully appointed to keep students safe and secure. It is also the perfect atmosphere for learning as the welcoming environment helps students feel right at home. Students get to learn and grow together, developing competence in all aspects of life, while building friendships that last.
-
Positive Parent-School Relationships
Ongoing, transparent communication with parents regarding student’s academic progress, behaviour and general wellbeing ensures a strong relationship between parents and the school. Parent-teacher meetings provide important feedback about student’s development and an opportunity to address any concerns. The common goal is the success of each student.
With the school’s continued efforts to keep supporting children’s education, they have launched an online learning platform – gurupanda. It uses a carefully curated selection of study materials that combines animated videos and interactive quizzes to make learning more effective. The e-lessons are guided by topics that are part of the Malaysian preschool curriculum, covering subjects such as English, Mathematics, Malay and Mandarin. Children can now learn anywhere, anytime, at their own pace.
Big Apple’s educational endeavours have won them several awards including excellent product and service from Sin Chew Education Awards. It is the school’s focus to uphold their commitment to support students to reach their personal best with new opportunities and new experiences.
