EFI Al Jabr \u2013 Nursery delivers the French National Curriculum \u2013 Cycle 1 (Kindergarten Program, MENJ 2021, consolidated 2023; Official Journal n\u00b025 of June 22, 2023), in perfect alignment with the KHDA\u2019s ECCE regulatory framework.\nOur educational offer ranges from the nursery (1\u20132 years old) to TPS, PS, MS, and GS classes (2\u20136 years old), ensuring educational continuity from early childhood to preparation for entry into CP (First Grade).\nThe program incorporates the latest adjustments from the MENJ (2025). The 2025 Cycle 1\nprograms place language at the heart of learning, as it is the key to all future discoveries.\nEach child is encouraged to develop autonomy and a sense of cooperation, to grow with\nconfidence and in harmony with others.\nEarly environmental awareness introduces them to taking care of the planet from a very young age. True to our commitment to your children\u2019s well-being, we assert a screen-free environment.\nIn line with current health recommendations, we believe that discovering the world must be, above all, hands-on and interactive.\nAs a Responsible Human Tech school, we protect our students\u2019 waking hours to foster their concentration and creativity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

      French is the main language of instruction, observation and evaluation.\nArabic is integrated daily through routines and projects that forge national identity, in\naccordance with the KHDA's Arabic language policy (Phase 1), with an exposure of at\nleast one-third of the school time from PS to GS.\nEnglish is used selectively to encourage international openness. UAE culture is omnipresent through Emirati tales, charity projects related to Ramadan, and National Day celebrations.\nFinally, inclusive accessibility is guaranteed by the principles of Universal Design for Learning\n(UDL), as well as the implementation of personalized support plans (ILSP and PLP).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
