INTERNATIONAL KIDS ACADEMY

information about the franchise system

description of franchise concept

International Kids Academy is an absolutely unique and fully innovative concept of preschool childcare, based on a range of recognized pedagogical approaches, with a flexible rhythm of work and respect for each child’s individuality. Our goal is happy and satisfied children who grow into confident people, ready to stand firmly on their own feet and, as adults, achieve more than average. Activities are conducted in three languages.

At the heart of our pedagogical practice are the key values that form the foundation of every relationship, every activity, and every step in working with children and their families:

• Respect for the child and their choices – we believe that even a young child has the right to their own voice, pace, and interests.
• Independence and individuality through a prepared environment – the space is carefully designed, so the child can explore freely yet safely, developing their potential and sense of personal responsibility.
• Freedom within boundaries – the child is given freedom of choice within clearly defined boundaries that provide security and structure.
• Multiculturalism – we celebrate diversity and teach children to view the world with open eyes, hearts, and minds.
• Flexibility – we understand that the needs of children and families change, so we remain open to adaptation and creative solutions.
• Partnership with the family – collaboration with parents is a key part of our approach. Together, we build a bridge between home and preschool, empowering the child in both worlds.
