CPD Singapore is proud to be a distributor of a comprehensive set of Chinese curriculum developed by The Confucius Institute of Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore). The curriculum was launched by the former Minister of Education, Mr Ong Ye Kung. The curriculum is aligned to the Ministry of Education (MOE)’s Nurturing Early Learners (NEL) framework and features locally relevant content, with scenes of Singaporean daily life that children can identify with, such as experiences in a HDB or MRT setting. 

Titled “Chinese for Early Learners”, the curriculum comprises of 68 books, 544 lesson plans, 2,800 flashcards and 16 student activity books. The curriculum caters to four preschool levels: Nursery 1 and 2, as well as Kindergarten 1 and 2. Since 2015, Confucius Institute-NTU’s Teaching Resource Team worked closely with academics and preschool educators to design and develop lesson plans, book content and nursery rhymes from scratch. The books are compatible with reading pens that can read the text aloud when pressed against the words on a page.
