Introduction

Our Primary School students enjoy the challenge of developing a broad range of knowledge, skills and understanding of the world to get them curious and developing a love of learning. Following on from our IEYC curriculum, we have introduced the IPC (International Primary Curriculum) which incorporates a thematic approach to learning, where every unit is underpinned by subject, personal and international learning goals for every child.

This curriculum is unique in its aim of building on children’s interests, allowing them to access the world around them, unlocking endless possibilities. Our teachers strive to inspire our learners to be reflective and collaborative in their learning as they continue to make connections between subjects and themes.

In addition to offering the IPC curriculum, we are also aligned with British National Curriculum Standards, allowing our students the unique opportunity of accessing the very best elements of education from around the world.

As for our Secondary School, we offer an ambitious learning environment and continues to champion academic excellence and high behavioural expectations. In Years 7 to 9, students pursue a range of subjects in which they will improve their academic, creative, social, interpersonal and sporting skills. In each subject, courses are structured to ensure increasing, progressive challenge in preparation for IGCSE courses in Years 10 and 11.

In all subjects, learning frameworks within each unit of work provide sequential assessment activities. After completion of tasks, students are provided with regular and precise formative guidance so that they know how to improve in preparation for subsequent tasks. At each stage of assessment, students are provided with tasks that will ensure that they reflect upon their work and engage with targets set. Long-term planning within each year and throughout Key Stage 3, allows skills to be revisited, strengthened and developed further.
