Inquiry-based learning fosters 21st-century skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration. The teacher’s role in inquiry-based learning is to guide students in their inquiry by gathering the tools and materials needed, and creating an environment primed for wonder and exploration.

As a fellow parent with a child enrolled at this preschool, I felt compelled to share a very different experience after reading the recent review.

We've been part of this school community for over a year, and our experience has been overwhelmingly positive. My child is thriving here—socially, emotionally, and academically. The teachers are warm, attentive, and engaged, and I’ve consistently observed a clean, safe, and nurturing environment.

It’s disheartening to read claims of “abysmal” supervision and “unsafe practices” because that simply hasn’t reflected what I’ve seen on a daily basis. Like any responsible parent, I drop in unannounced from time to time, and each visit has reassured me. Teachers are actively supervising, interacting with the children, and creating a structured yet playful atmosphere that makes my child excited to come back each day.
