Early Childhool Education
0
grade
The IPC is one of the three curricula offered by the British International Curriculum Association (ICA) and is implemented in more than 1,000 schools across 90 countries.

Our 0 grade welcomes children from
the age of 6, with an average class size of 6 students.
The two key components
of the curriculum:
The IPC is designed for the holistic development of children aged 5 to 11, with learning objectives organized into three interconnected areas: knowledge, skills, and understanding. These areas work together to support the comprehensive development of each child.

English is the primary language of instruction, with mandatory Montenegrin lessons and additional support for maintaining native language proficiency.

To ensure a smooth transition into the language environment, we utilize integrated teaching approaches, such as CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning).

The program places a strong emphasis not only on academic subjects but also on cross-curricular skills and the development of global awareness.

It is further enriched by the Adriatic International’s proprietary program, which is accredited by the Ministry of Education of Montenegro.

In addition to subject-specific and international objectives, the program includes personal development goals that form the foundation of the IPC educational approach.
