Tots Academy Abuja offers a comprehensive educational program that integrates the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum with Montessori principles, transitioning into the British National Curriculum for primary education. Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) with Montessori Integration: For children up to the age of five, Tots Academy combines the EYFS framework with Montessori methods. The EYFS focuses on seven key areas of learning:

  • Literacy
  • Mathematics
  • Understanding the World
  • Communication and Language
  • Expressive Arts and Design
  • Personal, Social, and Emotional Development (PSED)

Integrating Montessori principles emphasizes self-directed activity, hands-on learning, and collaborative play, fostering the development of the whole child—physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively. 

Primary Education: As students progress beyond the early years, Tots Academy implements the British National Curriculum for Key Stages 1 and 2, catering to pupils aged 6 to 11. This curriculum emphasizes: •Integrated Learning: Encouraging connections between subjects and real-world applications. •Critical Thinking: Developing analytical skills beyond rote memorisation. •Inclusivity: Addressing diverse learning styles and abilities with differentiated instruction. •Creativity and Innovation: Promoting artistic expression and problem-solving. Compulsory subjects include English, Mathematics, Science, Art and Design, History, Geography, Music, Physical Education (PE), Computing, and both ancient and modern foreign languages. This blended curriculum approach ensures a holistic education, supporting both academic excellence and personal growth.
