Bilingual Kindergartens: Key Things Every Parent Should Know

An Introduction to Bilingual Kindergartens

A bilingual kindergarten is an educational model where young children learn in an environment that uses two languages - most commonly Vietnamese and English. From an early age, children are exposed to and engage with both languages, which helps build natural language skills, flexible thinking, and a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

In addition to the language advantage, bilingual kindergartens are often equipped with modern facilities, inspiring learning spaces, and various functional areas that support children’s learning, play, and discovery.

Children also participate in many extracurricular and skill-building activities such as field trips, cultural exchanges, music, arts, and sports - helping them grow physically, intellectually, and emotionally from the very beginning.

Comprehensive development for your child

Children have access to two programs at the same time: the international curriculum and the curriculum issued by the Vietnamese Ministry of Education and Training. Through integrated learning activities and modern teaching methods, with a combination of Vietnamese and foreign teachers, children develop multidimensional thinking, flexible language abilities, and confidence in communicating in English.

Besides academic knowledge, children also practice a variety of foundational life skills such as communication, self-care, and helping with household chores. This fosters well-rounded development in intelligence, emotions, and social skills.

Learning in a modern, international-standard environment

A modern, safe, and inspiring learning environment plays an essential role in cultivating a love for learning in children each day. Functional areas are flexibly designed to suit each age group, allowing children to learn, play, and explore the world naturally.

A strong foundation for international learning in the future

The curriculum at Bilingual Kindergartens is built with intention, equipping children with solid knowledge and skills to get ready for Grade 1. Children will not feel overwhelmed when transitioning to the next level, and will enter new learning environments with confidence and independence - laying the groundwork to continue in bilingual or international programs later on.

Things to keep in mind when registering your child to a Bilingual Kindergarten

Choosing a Bilingual Kindergarten for your child is a serious investment that also requires thorough preparation from the family. Below are a few important points for parents to consider:

Understand the curriculum and educational philosophy

Each bilingual school will have its own educational orientation and a different way of combining the international and local curricula. Understanding the content, teaching methods, and developmental goals will help parents choose the school that best aligns with their child’s educational direction.

Prepare your child psychologically

Before entering a new learning environment, parents should help children get familiar with the idea of "going to school" through reading books and daily conversations. Letting your child visit the school, meet teachers, and participate in trial classes can help ease anxiety. It’s especially important for parents to accompany and listen to their child’s feelings during the early stages.

Build strong connections between home and school

The connection between family and school plays a major role in your child's development journey. Parents should regularly communicate with teachers, understand the child’s academic and emotional status, and collaborate with the school to build the most appropriate educational approach. When parents and teachers are aligned, the child will feel loved and safe both at home and at school.
