Educational concept

The focus of our pedagogical work is always each individual child with their specific needs and desire to learn. We follow a situational approach in our work: we take the children's existing lifestyle, worries, highlights, learning desires and areas of conflict as a starting point and design our everyday educational routine accordingly. We see learning as an exchange of ideas about a particular topic. What matters to us is the experience, not the concrete outcome. 

We invite each child to become a part of the community and to explore their potential. Our common goal is to teach all the children self-confidence, independent thinking, the ability to listen and share, and the capacity to deal with their own mistakes. Our goal is to impart a positive attitude to learning, so they are ready for the transition to school. 

The KESS Institute offers our families counselling and support in the areas of speech therapy, occupational therapy, psychotherapy and learning therapy. We adapt our activities depending on what the children want to learn and coordinate this programme with the families. For example, we have a partnership with the sports club SVN München e.V., which offers courses for our children.
