Students learn rapidly and effectively when lessons are developmentally appropriate. To meet the students' developmental needs, the curriculum plans are designed based on their learning phases and individual requirements.

The NextGen program identifies five major stages—exploring, absorbing, questioning, assimilating, and integrating—which ensures that the learning process is differentiated and aligned with the needs of students at each stage of their development.

Exploring: Learners in the exploring stage are naturally curious, eager to discover, and engage with their surroundings. They ask questions, experiment, and use play to make sense of the world. This curiosity fosters problem-solving, critical thinking, and an understanding of cause and effect, laying the foundation for lifelong learning and a sense of wonder.

Questioning: Students in the questioning stage are driven by curiosity and a strong desire to understand. They ask insightful questions, engage in discussions, and explore topics deeply. Their analytical mindset and embrace of uncertainty foster intellectual growth, critical thinking, and a lifelong habit of exploration.

Absorbing: Primary kids in the absorbing stage have a remarkable ability to fully immerse themselves in their experiences and surroundings. They eagerly take in new information, ideas, and sensations, displaying a deep receptivity to learning. Their attentiveness and sensitivity help them retain and integrate knowledge, enriching their understanding and fostering lasting cognitive development.

Assimilating: Students in the assimilating stage excel at absorbing and integrating new knowledge into their existing understanding. They make connections between concepts and adapt their thinking based on new insights. Their flexible mindset supports cognitive growth, fosters a well-rounded understanding, and prepares them to thrive in a constantly changing environment.

Integrating: The nature of an integrating student is characterized by their inherent ability to bring together various pieces of knowledge and experiences into a coherent and unified understanding. At this phase students demonstrate a natural inclination to synthesize information from different sources, creating meaningful connections between concepts. They exhibit a holistic approach to learning and problem-solving. Integrating children possess a capacity to see the bigger picture, recognizing how individual elements fit into a larger context. They often excel at interdisciplinary thinking, finding correlations between seemingly unrelated subjects. This nature of integration nurtures their critical thinking skills, encourages a multidimensional perspective, and empowers them to tackle complex challenges with a comprehensive and interconnected mindset.
