Why Kingsbridge
Six reasons parents choose us
We built the kindergarten we would send our own children to: few children per teacher, honest food, a transparent day, and English that becomes a habit rather than a lesson.
English with a native speaker
Two teachers in every group — one Uzbek-speaking, one English-speaking. English is spoken at breakfast, outdoors and in play: four hours a day, no drilling.
Groups of up to 12
One adult for every four children. The teacher knows who slept badly, who is afraid of the slide, and who is ready for harder work.
Early Years programme
The Cambridge early-years framework mapped onto the Uzbek state standard, so a graduate moves easily into a private or a state school.
Our own kitchen, five meals
Menus are written by a children's nutritionist, cooked on site, and published a week ahead in the app. Allergies and special diets are tracked by name.
Safety by protocol
Electronic entry, cameras in every zone, a nurse on every shift — and your child is released only to the people on your list.
An app for parents
Check-in, photos from class, what was eaten, how long they slept, invoices and payment — on your phone, without calling the office.
Groups
Four stages — from the first goodbye to the first grade
Children move up when they are ready, not on their birthday. Every move is discussed with you first.
Nursery
Gentle settling in
The first two weeks run on your schedule — two hours a day is fine. Potty training, using a spoon alone, and the first English songs.
Pre-K
Speech and company
The age of “why”. We build speech in two languages, teach negotiating in play, and add music and gross motor work.
Kindergarten
Projects and numbers
Project weeks, from how bread grows to what is inside a volcano. Counting to 20, letter sounds, first experiments and presenting to the group.
Pre-School
School readiness
Reading, writing, maths — and above all, staying with a task. By May a child sits through a lesson, holds a pen properly and is not afraid to answer.
Daily rhythm
A day at Kingsbridge
The schedule for the 4–5 group. The rhythm repeats day after day — that predictability is what makes a child calm.
- Arrival: electronic entry, morning health check
- Breakfast, with table duty
- Morning circle: weather, calendar, news — in English
- Main lesson on the week's theme
- Fruit and outdoor play
- Lunch: soup, a hot dish, compote
- Quiet hour
- Afternoon snack
- Clubs, chosen by the child
- Free play, supper, pick-up until 19:00
After lunch
Eleven clubs — inside the building, no taxi across town
Two clubs a week are included in the fee. The rest are optional, and the timetable is built with you in September.
- Chess
- Lego robotics
- Ballet
- Football
- Art studio
- Singing and choir
- Mental arithmetic
- Speech therapy
- Drama
- Cooking
- Swimming at a partner pool
The speech therapist and psychologist work on request and on the results of the September screening — the screening itself is free.
Food
Five meals a day, cooked here
- A children's nutritionist writes the weekly menu and posts it in the app every Friday
- No sugar before three years old, and no processed food in any group
- Allergies and diets sit in the child's record; the cook checks the list each morning
- Parents may come and have lunch with their child, with a day's notice
Safety
You always know where your child is
- Face-recognition entry: arrival and departure reach you as a notification
- Cameras in every room and in the yard; footage is kept for 30 days
- A child is released only to people on your list, against ID
- A nurse on every shift, a morning check, and a written plan for every incident
Included
Uniform and starter kit — on us
Every enrolled child receives the full kit: two polo shirts, a backpack and stationery. Nothing extra to pay for in September.
Parents
What families say
“At her old kindergarten my daughter cried every morning for six months. Here, on the fourth day, she opened the door herself and walked in without looking back. That answered every question I had.”
“I work in IT and I am fussy about detail. Here they tell me what my son ate and how long he slept — and it matches what he tells me at home. Trust was built out of small things.”
“In April my son started correcting my English. We prepared for the school interview for half an hour — he already knew it all.”
