HEI Schools is an international preschool concept that brings the excellence of Finnish Early Childhood Education to schools all over the world
HEI Schools is founded in partnership with the University of Helsinki
The Finnish model has been rigorously tested for decades with outstanding learning results. It combines the best and latest learning philosophies, models, and practices to meet the highest standards in education. At HEI Schools, we adapt its holistic approach, emphasizing on a child’s perspective without compromising academic results.
As our co-founder, the education experts at the University of Helsinki are a part of our daily working team. Together, we constantly strive to research, plan, and innovate for a successful implementation of the Finnish early education system. This is done through a carefully designed plan by providing purposeful play, nurturing guidance from highly-trained teachers, as well as the opportunity to adopt learning as a natural process shaped by one’s interests, all in due time. In this way, learning can happen everywhere, all the time.
The Finnish education system and HEI Schools successfully combine emotional intelligence and academic competence
Competitive, performance and test based models are not good for children.
At HEI Schools, with the Finnish education model, we promote comprehensive growth, learning, development and the well-being of children, and provide a rich foundation for the progress of their emotional development, skills and competence.
Children learn while they play. It is when their curiosities are answered, their imaginations shared, and their identity reflected and grown.
HEI Schools Cyberjaya uses a holistic approach, adaptable to local requirements and culture. Recent developments in the curriculum have also taken into consideration learning objectives from our local Malaysian preschool curricula as well as other international curriculums used in the country. We focus on the academic readiness skills alongside the popular Finnish play based approach.
