At Axon's Children Centre, we believe there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all programme for children with special education needs. To ensure real progress in enhancing school readiness, children with special needs especially should be encouraged to learn in their individual ways. *Our school is open for children aged 3 and above.
The Finnish early childhood education is world-famous for a reason. In addition to teaching academic skills, this curriculum encourages children to learn through interaction with the people and environment around them. Learning through play can foster engagement with multiple brain areas, leading to strenghtened motor skills and more.
Backed by 40+ years of scientifically valid research, the AEPS-3 toolkit helps us understand your child's learning style, allowing us to recommend a tailored plan that'll enhance their motivation to learn, and help you get a full picture of their progress.

Our team of educational professionals are all trained in early childhood education, and a low teacher:child ratio means it's easier for our teachers to offer personalised support and create an environment where kids can be more engaged.
The excellence of the Finnish education system, now in Malaysia
Play is an essential part of a child's development. In fact, unstructured play opportunities are important to spark curiosity, develop new skills and keep them active.
. We are a special education preschool, aiming to help parents with preparing their children for school.
. The Axon Therapeutic Preschool programme in particular is best for children with special needs such as autism, Down Syndrome, dyslexia, ADHD, learning disabilties, speech delay, language impairment, and behaviour problems.
. Autistic children are often visual learners, and they typically enjoy hands-on activities.
. But at the end of the day, there's no one-size-fits-all solution as every child is different. This is why our curriculum places an emphasis on the importance of an individualised education plan. This allows us to cater to every child's unique needs, while providing a safe, supportive, and respectful learning environment for them.
We use the AEPS-3 toolkit which basically stands for Assessment, Evaluation, and Programming System for Infants and Children, Third Edition. Considered as most powerful assessment and curriculum system for ensuring real progress for every young child, this toolkit is backed by more than 40 years of studies, led by early intervention visionary Dr. Diane Bricker and the Early Intervention Management and Research Group (EMRG).
. The HEI Schools concept is inspired by Finnish Early Childhood Education, where it encourages children to be curious and creative as they interact and explore the world around them.
. Children are also invited to participate and make their own decisions in an environment that goes beyond the classroom.
. This in turn, contribute to their overall development as they learn skills such as socio-emotional competence, verbal and bodily expression, and more, which are essential skills to learn as your child prepare for school.
. In short, the HEI Schools curriculum actually addresses all aspects of a child’s growth, and not just their academic advancements.
Going holistic basically means recognising that children are unique individuals and placing emphasis on the individual child, as well as their strength and interests.
