Young Hoon's curriculum is the first in Korea to receive accreditation as a Cambridge International School,
enabling us to implement the Cambridge curricula.
Young Hoon adopted the 'Cambridge International Curriculum' for its immersion education program, becoming the first private elementary school in Korea to achieve accreditation from Cambridge. This curriculum provides a systematic educational program, enabling students aged 5 to 19 to access globally recognized education from anywhere in the world. Established in 1858, Cambridge programs are implemented in communities across 160 countries and in over 10,000 schools worldwide.
