Chisinau International Preschool to offer world-class Cambridge Early Years curriculum. On August, 17 CHIPS has been approved to offer the brand-new Cambridge Early Years programme.

Cambridge Early Years is the start of an exciting educational journey that helps learners aged 3 to 6 develop the knowledge, understanding and skills they need to meet key early milestones and thrive in and outside of school.
The programme is child-centred and play-based, helping young learners to grow at their own pace and connect their development with the world and people around them.
It gives to our preschool everything we need to deliver a quality early years education: a holistic and balanced curriculum, engaging classroom resources, assessment approaches to measure learners’ progress, and professional development opportunities.

Rod Smith, Group Managing Director, International Education at Cambridge University Press & Assessment said “We are very pleased that Chisinau International Preschool – CHIPS has become a Cambridge Early Years Centre, and look forward to working with them in the coming years.

“Our programme focuses on children’s all-round development, helping them build a solid foundation of knowledge, understanding and skills, and preparing them for the transition to primary education. It was developed in collaboration with trusted early years experts both in the UK and internationally, so it reflects the very latest educational thinking. We truly believe that Cambridge Early Years gives young learners the best possible start in life.”
Cambridge Early Years is the first stage of the Cambridge Pathway. By extending the pathway to younger learners, Cambridge now offers a clear path for educational success from age 3 to 19.

Chisinau International Preschool (CHIPS), located in Chișinău, Moldova, opened its doors in 2014. Since then, it has provided a nurturing and inspiring environment where young children can learn, play and grow. Our mission is to help every child develop a love of learning, confidence and the skills to thrive, while celebrating their individuality and preparing them for the next stage of their educational journey

Rodica Stelea, CHIPS Director : “We are proud that Chisinau International Preschool has been approved as a Cambridge Early Years Centre. This programme reflects our commitment to giving every child a joyful, supportive start to learning. Its child-centred, play-based approach will help our learners build confidence, explore the world around them and develop the skills they need for the next stage of their educational journey. We look forward to bringing Cambridge Early Years to our community.”
