The PlayLearn learning environment holds the child central. Thus, along with academic excellence, we encourage creativity, and above all fun. Finally, our children are exposed to fun forms of technology like robots, kindles and app filled tablets and computer that are used to code and create. But we incorporate also music, dance, the arts and languages. Our methods have proven extremely successful. The PlayLearn child is inquisitive, self-motivated, well mannered, confident and successful

PlayLearn’s Curriculum main goal is to provide superior learning objectives that fully prepare them to navigate a global learning community. It integrates the Nigerian and UK curriculum, and various Core Curriculum Standards from top school districts in the United States.  Our Early Childhood Learning is firmly grounded in learning through purposeful play but is also inspired by Montessori and The Reggio Emilia Approach. 

PlayLearn provides an innovative yet structured curriculum that teaches collaboration, character, communication, problem solving, and critical thinking through an integrated approach to learning.

The PlayLearn Curriculum is delivered using the most effective teaching methods that allow children to use their imagination and creativity to learn actively.  Aware that all children learn differently, our teachers are trained to analyze and recognize individual learning styles, then utilize differentiated teaching to ensure EVERY child learns and understands.
