KIDDIE KOLLEGE
Kiddie Kollege
Greetings from the PCU’s Kiddie Kollege and Special Education Unit!
The Kiddie Kollege is a Preschool Department of Philippine Christian University that provides quality education for kids ages 3 to 5 years old. It is an early childhood education program where kids start to learn basic skills, social and emotional skills, develop their interests, and form a relationship between their parents, peers, and teachers. It is their foundation and groundwork for future development in which children combine learning with play in a program run by professionally trained and competent teachers. We follow the DepEd Order requirements and exceeded them by adding additional Intellectual Development as our Institutional Add-on. The Kiddie Kollege of PCU started in 1970. The Kiddie Kollege continues to grow and is continuing to lead a new innovation in preschool. The continued effort of the administration, faculty, and staff in cooperation with the parents marked the success of the programs it offers.
The Kiddie Kollege program encourages the children to do their best at their own pace. Through a wealth of stimulating experiences in Reading and Writing, Language and Creative Arts, Mathematics, Social Studies, Science, Computer Education, Music, and Christian Values. The children learn to express themselves in varied meaningful ways. As they work and play they learn to take initiative and responsibilities and discover ways of getting along with others. Opportunities of discovering facts and understand things are available to them. Situations that facilitate the development of realistic and positive self-image are provided in the teaching-learning environment. It enables the children to live as happy, expressive individuals, able to express their love to God and others.
In 2009, the Special Education Program was offered to cater to pupils with special needs from Level I up to Level VI. Its Basic Learning Competencies (BL’s) Program is designed for exceptional children with special needs covering language (English & Filipino) Science and Mathematics, prevocational competencies, and social competencies to which we have adapted.
