Holistic, play-based and future-ready education 

Academic learning with character building

Every child has the right to grow and learn in a supportive and stress-free environment that equips them with the skills they need to prosper in the future. We believe in recognizing each child holistically and aim to educate socially, emotionally and academically confident, capable children. Our curriculum teaches cognitive skills and our pedagogy helps children develop soft skills like resilience, communication and problem solving, all those skills that research proves to be vital for future academic success.

I was looking for a school that embraces the whole child and views them as an individual. My partner wanted a school that allows children to be children, to pursue their imagination and to participate in free play. HEI Schools hit all the marks for both of us.
