Curriculum Phases

Our Programs

Nikola Academy prepares children to become future-ready learners. We offer something enduring: a well-designed developmental pathway that helps children grow steadily, cognitively, academically, and personally. Students grow through innovations, competitions, and other personal achievements as they become future-ready learners.

Phases 1–3

Foundation Levels

Build curiosity, confidence, and core STEM skills through broad, hands-on exploration.

In the early stages, the shared Foundation Levels ensure that every student, regardless of future interests, develops a positive relationship with learning, strong core STEM understanding, and the habits of mind needed for deeper exploration later. These phases emphasize breadth before depth, hands-on learning, and gradual academic alignment.

Phases 4–8

Robotics

Build, program, and improve!

For students who love to build. Learners design, assemble, program, and test their own robots, developing engineering, coding, and creative problem-solving skills as they bring intelligent machines to life.

SciTech

Explore how the world works!

For curious minds who want to know how the world works. Students explore science and technology through hands-on experiments, real data, and systems thinking, building the scientific reasoning and problem-solving skills to turn questions into discoveries.
