The UK government notes, “a child’s experiences between birth and age five have a major impact on their future life chances. A secure, safe and happy childhood is important in its own right1.”
Have you ever wondered what a day at Dulwich Puxi is like?
On Saturday, 30 November, you and your child are invited to step into our classrooms and experience it for yourselves!
Join our upcoming ‘Stay and Play’ and ‘Key Stage 1 Immersion Day’:
Designed for children aged 18 months to 5 years, this event allows parents and children to engage together in a variety of early years classroom activities. Our incredible Early Years team will guide you through what a typical day at Dulwich looks like.
Designed for students aged 5 to 7, this event immerses children in a classroom environment where they can independently create social connections and learn classroom routines. Meanwhile, parents will meet with our leadership team for an in-depth discussion about the curriculum, learning outcomes, and the details of Year 1 and Year 2.
What does learning at an International School look like?
A Place Where Students Come First
It is our core value. Putting our students first is at the heart of everything we do. Our learning environments are thoughtfully designed to support each child’s unique needs, talents, and wellbeing. From our curriculum to our teaching approach, every decision is made with your child in mind.
“My child, Gilbert, has always received thoughtful attention from his teachers. Teachers take the time to understand his individual needs and select reading materials that are appropriate for him. His progress is consistently monitored, and we, as parents, are regularly updated on his development. This open communication also allows me to support and remind him effectively at home. It’s clear that the school places students first, ensuring each child’s success through personalized care and collaboration with parents.”
— Coco, Dulwich Puxi Parent
