The school follows the National Curriculum for England together with its assessments and caters for students between the ages of 3 and 11.

Teaching approach of the school

The Pearl delivers British curriculum and believes that children should be actively involved in their learning and aim to do so by teaching in creative and thematic way. As a result of this, learning is cross-curricular. Numeracy, Literacy and all other subjects are delivered in a fun and engaging way where children can make links and apply skills across the curriculum.
Each term, topic overviews are sent home introducing the new thematic unit and the key elements delivered through each subject area. The Pearl believes that teaching through creative thematic units helps to embed skills and make learning journey more relevant and vibrant for each individual.
