Kindergarten provides a number of benefits for all young boys, however there are three important benefits to note. Linbrook School offers full-day junior kindergarten The first, which is especially essential for boys, is the focus on literacy skills that will help set the stage for future academic success. At a time when a boy's brain development is most rapid, the introduction and teaching of language in a structured environment sets a foundation and comfort with learning that will carry on throughout his school life. Another benefit of kindergarten is the social and emotional advantage a boy receives from being surrounded by other boys who are also negotiating their way through new adventures. A boy begins to understand others and his own feelings while he forms valuable friendships. The third benefit of starting school in junior kindergarten is that it introduces students to school routines in a fun and supportive manner. This is a byproduct of schooling in general, but it's one that cannot be overlooked as it singlehandedly leads to success, confidence, security and good work habits.
