THE MALVERN SCHOOL OF OAKS EARNS NATIONAL NAEYC ACCREDITATION

The Malvern School of Oaks is proud to have earned accreditation from the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). NAEYC is the nation’s leading organization of early childhood professionals.

To earn NAEYC accreditation, The Malvern School of Oaks went through an extensive self-study process, measuring the program and its services against ten NAEYC Early Childhood Program Standards and more than 400 related accreditation criteria. The program received NAEYC accreditation after an on-site visit by a NAEYC Assessor to ensure that the program meets each of the ten NAEYC program standards. NAEYC-accredited programs are also subject to unannounced visits during their accreditation.

The Malvern School is a private preschool serving Infants through School Age. Open five days a week, from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., we are dedicated to educating young children through diverse and innovative programming. When choosing The Malvern School, families’ expectations are met through our commitment to providing the finest curriculum, staff, and environment in the early childhood industry.

The Malvern School of Oaks opened in February 2010 and joins the other accredited locations in Pennsylvania: Malvern, Frazer, Glen Mills, Lionville, Richboro, Royersford, Newtown Square and Downingtown. In addition, locations in Erial, Voorhees and Washington Township, New Jersey are accredited.
