School Readiness

Kids In Tuition is a licensed provider of the Begin Bright School Readiness Programs. We focus on supporting our youngest learners in the early stages of development and school life. Our programs assist children in building confidence and creating a love of learning, so they can flourish when they start school.

Our programs align with the Early Years Learning Framework and Australian Curriculum giving young children a balanced introduction to learning. The programs are designed to give focused attention to the development of early literacy and numeracy skills, as well as social skills, school routines and fine motor development.

All of our programs are designed to be enjoyable and give kids the absolute best start to their education.

Throughout all of our school readiness programs children are supported to:

  • Confidently approach tasks

  • Demonstrate an understanding of age-appropriate literacy and numeracy skills

  • Develop a phonemic knowledge of words

  • Work in groups

  • Follow instructions

  • Build independence

  • Build school readiness skills
