More information about our caring staff

As a part of our teaching strategy, we not only provide daily opportunities for children to develop their social skills, but we also create several positive social learning experiences each day. We are committed to making sure that opportunities exist for children to apply the problem-solving skills that they have learned. This will help them to independently process and resolve small problems while we maintain our focus and commitment to develop each child's dignity and positive self-image.

Discipline policy

Firstly, teachers facilitate the development of a positive self-image and good self-esteem by respecting, accepting and comforting, regardless of the child’s behavior. Teachers will practice developmentally appropriate guidance, which will demonstrate respect for encouraging children to develop self-control and the ability to make better decisions in the future. Learning self-control for children is fostered when teachers treat them with dignity and use of the following discipline techniques.

Guiding children by setting clear consistent and fair limits for the classroom behavior or in the case of older children, helping them set their own limits. Teachers must value mistakes as learning opportunities and redirect children to more acceptable behavior or activities and consistently encourage the appropriate behavior. Teachers must be sensitive and listen to children talk about their feelings and frustrations. Children must be guided by teachers to learn and resolve conflicts; teachers must model the appropriate skills that children can follow to solve their own problems. Teachers must patiently remind children of rules and their rationale as needed and teacher’s expectations must match and respect children’s developing capabilities.

Teachers will provide children with many opportunities to develop social skills such as cooperating, helping, negotiating, and talking with the person involved solving interpersonal problems. Teachers will facilitate these positive social experiences throughout their daily schedule as well as in their teaching strategies, curriculum goals as well as preparing the environment for children to learn these skills through exploration and interaction with adults, other children and materials. Teachers will be alert to possible conflicts and either intervene appropriately or allow the children to resolve the conflict independently.
