Perhaps this is where their journey begins.

The fee structure is divided into two sections: the admission package and the tuition fee with annual charges. You will be guided in detail once you are invited to our campus for an in-person meeting.

Our admission cycle is rolling but typically begins in September of the year before the academic year starts. Families wishing to enroll for the current session may be invited to meet based on seat availability, with timelines followed on a first-come, first-served basis.

At VLC, our admissions process is a thoughtful journey, one that allows us to understand each child’s unique spirit while helping families experience the values that define our community. Submitting an application is the first step, but it does not guarantee admission. The process typically includes information sessions, interviews, and/or observations with our team. These are opportunities for us to get to know your child, and for you to see how our approach to learning aligns with your hopes. Invitations for these stages are extended according to space and intake timelines.

VLC has recently opened its doors in Gulberg in LHE.

Children aged 1.4 years to 2.3 years by August of the joining year qualify for Playgroup. That said, VLC believes every child learns at their own pace.

The age of enrolment is a deeply personal choice for each family. Some families prefer an earlier start in Playgroup or Pre-Nursery, while others wait until Nursery or Prep. The aim is always to provide love, emotional and physical safety, and a nurturing environment where children can connect, grow, and thrive.

BabySnap is our premium mom-and-toddler program that focuses on pre-school milestones before children begin full-time school. It also gives parents a chance to experience a rich sensory, physical, and emotionally engaging journey with their child as they prepare for independence.

We wouldn’t call it a priority, but the process is definitely easier for families already part of the community.

As a standard policy, VLC does not offer discounts or waivers. However, as an inclusive school, we are always open to conversations to explore how learning can be an opportunity for families rather than a cost.

English is the primary medium of instruction, while we also respect and actively practice cultural and linguistic diversity.

Early Years: 1:6 As children progress, ratios gradually increase to 1:7, 1:8, and ultimately 1:12 by Elementary.

At the moment, VLC does not offer a van service.

For families moving back to Pakistan, the process is very similar: applications are submitted online. Our team ensures scheduling is hassle-free, and if you arrive after the recommended joining date, we can explore conditional offers so you don’t have to worry about losing a seat.

VLC begins with the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) framework from England and later incorporates mixed boards such as

• Oxford AQA
• Cambridge
• EdExcel

Edexcel (owned by Pearson) features a flexible, modular exam structure, allowing students to sit units at different points in time, alongside linear options. It also emphasizes digital/on-screen assessment readiness

Oxford and Cambridge use a mostly linear structure emphasizing deep critical thinking and analytical, essay-heavy exams. However AQA Urdu and Islamiat are easier and preferred.

What truly sets us apart is how we teach — through our SNAP and STAMP approaches, grounded in mental health and a whole-child philosophy.

Families will be required to provide:

• A copy of the child's B-Form.
• A copy of the child's passport in the case of a foreign national.

At the center of VLC's educational approach is respect for the child. Our settling-in process is therefore gradual, gentle and responsive. Starting school can feel exciting and unfamiliar at the same time, and children differ in how quickly they feel safe within a new environment and routine.

The settling-in programme is generally planned across the first four weeks, with particular goals introduced gradually. A parent, family member or familiar caregiver may be asked to remain available during the initial period until the child is ready to stay independently. The facilitator will guide this decision according to the child's needs.

The schedule remains flexible. Children who need more time may continue with shorter durations, while settled children may move forward sooner. Families are requested not to compare one child's settling journey with another.
