School admission checklist

Finding the right school is never an easy task and probably one of the biggest decisions you will make in your child’s life so far. Once you have selected your shortlist of schools that fit your criteria the next task is to visit them all personally.

But what questions should you ask?

We have created a handy school admissions check-list with all the things you need to remember to bring with you.

THE COMPLETE PRESCHOOL CHECKLIST

1. Duration of childcare service

Consider whether you need full-day or half-day childcare services for your child. Not all preschools provide full-day options, so it’s crucial to find one that aligns with your childcare needs.

2. Your budget for school fees

Establishing a budget is essential when choosing a preschool in Thailand. While we all desire the best for our children, finding a preschool that fits your budget is crucial. Consistency in the learning environment is vital for your child’s educational journey.

3. The preferred location

Depending on your daily arrangements, selecting a preschool close to home, your parents’ or in-laws’ place, or your workplace is a key consideration. Ideally, choose a location that makes drop-off and pick-up convenient during weekdays.

4. The learning experience you want for your child

Research the type of learning journey you want for your child. Look into teaching approaches, methodologies, and curricula that align with your child’s individuality. For instance, schools following the Reggio Emilia approach may suit those valuing self-paced learning and self-expression.

5. Availability of bilingual programmes and the languages offered

If you’re interested in your child learning multiple languages, seek preschools offering bilingual programs. Additionally, check the range of languages available, as some schools may offer more than just the typical English-Mandarin program.

6. The learning environment

As preschool is where your child spends a significant amount of time, ensure it offers a conducive learning environment. Whether you prefer a balance of indoor and outdoor learning or more emphasis on outdoor activities, confirm that the facilities meet your preferences.

7. Speak to the teachers

Teachers play a pivotal role in your child’s learning journey. Attend virtual open days or visit the school to engage with teachers, understand their teaching styles, and observe how they interact with students.

8. Types of support services offered

Identify the support services available, tailored to your family’s needs. Whether it’s speech therapy, early intervention programs, or a support system like qualified counselors and parent groups, having the right support in place is invaluable.

Every school is unique – so choose one that suits your child best!

Remember, every preschool is unique, each with its educational philosophy and distinct strengths. When making your decision, focus not on the school with the best facilities or program, but rather the one that aligns most closely with your child’s needs. Happy preschool hunting!
