Based on Eric Erikson’s Stages of Psychosocial Development, we prepare our P.E.A.R.L.S (Personalized Education And Refinement Learning Structure) and A.C.E. (Applied Competency-based Education) programs according to the development stages of your child.
Upon gaining the ability to sit and learn for a longer period, the child is progressed to ACE. A new child my also join the A.C.E. program provided he shows the required abilities during assessment. When the time come to eventually learn how to be a worker to make his/her living, he shall progress to APPRENTICESHIP program and learn to be ready for job deployment.
Why A.C.E at Breakthru?
Child joins the learning program based on his or her readiness, not by age.
