Creta Academy

Great initiative by Denmark we should aim to follow!

Students in Denmark have mandatory empathy classes as part of the school curriculum Children in Denmark are taught about empathy from a young age, both inside and outside of school.

In the quest for academic excellence, sometimes a child's socio-emotional development is overlooked in favour of a perfect report card. At Creta Academy, we take a holistic approach. We ensure that your child develops resilience, perseverance, strength, and learns how to regulate their emotions, in addition to great grades.

Talk to us about how your child can benefit from our program held from 12th March - 15th March. It doesn't end there; there will be monthly follow-ups for the next 6 months, as well as a year's subscription to IXL Math & English, so your child can continue to progress at their own pace.

Does your child have a favourite book? ⁠

The future can be super bright for our youth if they are properly supported, particularly mentally and emotionally. As adults, we should make an effort to give our children a safe, non-judgemental platform to express themselves, so that they know they can always approach us; no matter is too trival.

Our aim is to help students become independent, effective learners. Your child will walk away from Creta Academy having learned cognitive self-regulation and be intrinsically motivated to learn.⁠

We keep the trainer-to-student ratio low - just 6 children to each trainer, all so each child can receive individual and personalized attention.
