Programme Placement

Every child and family arrives at JoyKids with a different story.

Some children are beginning school for the first time.

Others are transferring from another preschool.

Some families have recently moved to Malaysia.

Our Admissions Team will help you understand the programme and entry point most appropriate for your child.

Our Programmes

Language of Learning

Placement at JoyKids considers the child’s:

  • age
  • developmental stage
  • previous school experience
  • individual needs
  • programme availability

Where appropriate, our team may also discuss the child’s language background, routines and learning experiences with parents.

Our objective is to place children in an environment where they can feel appropriately supported and challenged.

English is an important language of learning and communication within JoyKids.

Children joining from different language backgrounds are welcomed into our international community.

Young children often develop language through:

  • relationships
  • play
  • stories
  • songs
  • routines
  • conversation
  • meaningful classroom experiences

Parents are encouraged to discuss any language considerations with our Admissions Team so we can better understand the child’s background.

This may include important information concerning:

International Families

Beginning a new school can be exciting, but it can also be a significant transition.

We encourage parents to share information about:

  • how the child responds to separation
  • comfort routines
  • previous school experience
  • communication preferences
  • particular interests
  • anything that may help the child settle

Children adjust at different rates.

Our educators approach this transition with patience, reassurance and an understanding that confidence develops gradually.
