Empowering Each and Every Child Through Personalized Learning

The Dove Centre furthers this commitment by offering specialized spaces, dedicated educators, and individualized support to ensure that children who need additional structure can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally while becoming an integral part of a vibrant educational community.
The Dove Centre, as an extension of The City School, provides meaningful opportunities for interaction and shared experiences so that as students grow, they can gradually transition between learning spaces when appropriate, ensuring a truly personalized approach that evolves with each child’s needs.
Designed to foster confidence, independence, and a love for learning, The Dove Centre integrates individualized curriculum plans, evidence-based teaching methods, sensory-friendly spaces, and adaptive learning tools to create a truly inclusive environment. Its curriculum balances academic growth with functional life skills, empowering children to learn naturally and equipping them with the confidence, independence, and knowledge necessary for learning and personal success. Through this more intensive and comprehensive support system, The Dove Centre aims to help each child achieve their goals and become a well-rounded individual.

That’s why we collaborate closely with parents to create a supportive learning experience that extends beyond the classroom. By pioneering a new standard for inclusive education in Thailand, The City School and The Dove Centre are redefining how schools adapt to each student’s unique special needs and empower every child to reach their full potential.
