Preschool education
Why become a pre-school teacher?
“Children are our greatest treasure” is not just a nice phrase, it’s what we believe in at Sofizo Educational Centre.
Only the best is good enough for them. That’s why at Sofizo Educational Centre, we’ll give you the knowledge you need to ensure that the children in your care get the very best. Just as you are an individual, so are the children. We know this, that’s why we build our success, which is reflected in your satisfaction, on an individual and friendly approach so that you will be able to apply it successfully in your career. Our teachers spend most of the day with the children, and not only looking after and educating them. They are often their second mothers, with whom they find comfort and understanding. That is why good educators are people with strong empathy and big hearts.

That is why the Early Childhood Education programme is for those of you who are ready to take responsibility for the care and protection of children, who love children, who like to play with them and who would like to be actively involved with young children.
Now is the time to take advantage of this opportunity and enter a valued profession that opens many doors, both in terms of your professional career and further education.

Course book
The curriculum is divided into general education subjects and subjects that fully cover the specialisation or knowledge required for a pre-school teacher to work successfully with young children. The professional part is divided into compulsory and optional parts. We will find out what parts exactly you will need to complete in order to successfully finish the Early Childhood Educator programme when we first meet you. Namely, we will conduct a familiarisation interview with you upon enrolment to find out what your wishes, expectations and interests are. Based on the interview, we will prepare your personal education plan. Individuals who already have certain knowledge and skills related to the training programme do not need to attend the full training process, or you do not need to complete all the requirements as we will acknowledge them. The knowledge already acquired is verified by evidence.
On this basis, we then work together to design a learning path that is tailored to you:
As each student receives individual attention, it is possible to adapt their personal education plan.
