Early Childhood Development (ECD)
Early Childhood Development
(ECD)Early Childhood Development (ECD) is a pre-primary education program which provides foundational learning for children aged 3 to 5 years. We recognize that the early years are a critical window for shaping a child’s cognitive, emotional, and physical development. We provide a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn and play as well as receive nutritious meals.
The play and learn model used by CTT fosters creativity, problem-solving abilities, and social skills, enabling children to explore and understand the world around them.
