International Early Years Curriculum

The International Early Years Curriculum (IEYC) is a research-based, child-centered curriculum for children aged 2 to 5. The IEYC identifies best practices and developmental requirements in early childhood education, allowing teachers and practitioners to appreciate the interrelated nature of learning.

It gives a contemporary perspective that empowers instructors as they help children learn successfully and with delight by emphasizing playful, holistic, and child-focused approaches to learning and development.

Why choose the IEYC?

• Designed on eight learning principles that we believe are critical to the learning and development of children.
• The focus of our unique learning approach turns away from monitoring results and toward driving children's learning and development.
• There are over 18 learning units focused on intriguing subjects that pique children's innate curiosity.
