At The Children’s Learning Center of Beijing a new class was created for kids who did not make the international school cut off dates and who don’t want to repeat the same pre-school year again. This new class, called Preparatory Class, has been designed to follow what the child would be doing if they were at an international kindergarten. The emphasis is on writing and beginner reading skills as well as English/Language arts, science, PE, social studies and more. It is an all day program with the mornings taught in English and the afternoon session in Chinese.
