Metropolitan School

The school's location is especially suited to the pre-school children who can safely play outdoors and enjoy their surroundings. This environment offers great natural surroundings for the children to explore and develop in.

Student teacher ratios and approach

Student-teacher ratios are especially low in the pre-school where extra care and attention is given to the young children. Teachers can therefore give extra time to those toddlers who need it. As a result teachers are able to offer instructions based on the individual strengths, interests and abilities. Metropolitan pre-school provides an environment which enriches young minds encouraging the start of their intellectual, social and emotional development.
