PRIMARY CURRICULUM
The Key Stage framework is the British Education Curriculum
for our Year 1 to Year 4 (ages 5 years to 9 years old) and
provides a broad and balanced framework for our students to
learn and develop their knowledge.
It consist of 3 Core Subjects which are taught daily:
1) English - Language skills are an essential foundation for
success in life. We teach students to speak, read and write
English fluently and accurately in a short space of time using
our renowned Phonics program, Speaking and listening skills
are taught to help students express themselves clearly and
confidently.
2) Mathematics - Mathematics is a creative and highly
interconnected discipline that provides a foundation for
understanding the world. Students are encouraged to discuss,
solve and try out challenges for themselves. Through practical,
mental and investigative work we aim to develop mathematical
skills that stay with the students for life.
3) Science - Students are encouraged to recognise the power of
rational explanation and develop a sense of excitement and
curiosity about natural phenomena. They understand how science
can be used to explain what is occurring, predict how things will
behave and analyse causes.
