Singapore preschool stages and playgroup options

Preschool education in Singapore covers children from two months up to age seven, encompassing stages such as infant care, playgroups, nursery (N1/N2), and kindergarten (K1/K2). While preschool attendance is not compulsory, the Ministry of Education and the Early Childhood Development Agency (ECDA) provide the regulatory framework, curriculum guidance, and subsidy information for these stages.

Various specialized programs are available to support early development. For instance, Agora Colearning focuses on blending academic curiosity with purposeful play, while Aquaducks provides playgroup programs centered on building water confidence and swimming skills for babies and toddlers.
