School Readiness Programme in Tengah
A 10-week small-group programme for children preparing for Primary 1 who need a little more support to start school confidently, with or without a diagnosis.
Who it is for
- Children in Kindergarten 1 or 2 preparing for Primary 1
- Children with identified or emerging needs, with or without a diagnosis
- Trouble attending in a group, following instructions or waiting their turn
- Children who need support with independence, materials or the fine motor work of writing and cutting
- Children whose preschool teacher has raised questions about readiness
What each session covers
Each weekly 60-minute session rehearses the real classroom: sitting and attending in a group, following multi-step instructions, waiting and taking turns, managing materials, and the fine motor work of writing and cutting.
Every session is led by one of our therapists, with a co-facilitator when the group has five or more children. The programme focuses on classroom skills; recess, canteen and self-care routines aren't covered in sessions, and we give you guidance on those at the final debrief.
Includes pre- and post-programme readiness measures, a parent debrief, a written summary and a school-transition note you can share with your child's primary school. Weekday-afternoon and Saturday cohorts. A cohort runs with a minimum of three children; if it doesn't reach that, fees are refunded in full or transferred. No GST. We accept Child LifeSG Credits and CDC Vouchers.
